They're all throwin stones at the back of my home
Kickin the dirt in the air

Well I left to think while they're thinking I'm stoned

Well I had no cause to be there

Well I left this town
Well I had something left to bury the fear in my head

Well it's all it's the same cause the city's just as bad

It's full of people like me

We've all run away

Everyone wants what nobody needs

Silver and gold

Everyone wants what nobody needs

Well I ran to woods and I preached to the birds
St. Francis talking to me

Well they said I'd find love and the pain I'd endure

If I would just listen to him
With my ear to the ground and my heart full of lead
Well I quietly listed to teach

Oh with tears in his eyes he just looked straight through me

I awkwardly waited for speech

We've all run away

Everyone wants what nobody needs

Silver and gold

Everyone wants what nobody needs

Once I was sure that this love was the truth
Well I quickly spit in his face
I returned to my home

Friends and I, we threw stones

Bragging that I knew the way
