Over 9000! – Nobody Outside Of Texas Knows My Name lyrics

I could never forget where I came from,
But sometimes forgetting is a new beginning.
But when it came time to walk myself back home,
I spent a lifetime lost on a trail all alone.

All these months seem like weeks & they break down to days,
& still no one outside of Texas knows my name.

From you:
Come through.
From me:
I'm trying.
I never lied to you,
But believe me I tried to,
If you believe in me,
You'll drown out at sea.

I had all my faith in you,
But nothing lasts forever.
You & I are living proof,
And I wont make that mistake again. X2

I'm not afraid to spill my guts in front of people that don't care.
It's all I ask for is just one chance.
I'm not afraid to spill my guts when you don't care.
It's all I ask for; It's all I ask for.

You'll drown out at sea.

From you:
Come through.
From me:
I'm trying.
I never lied to you,
But believe me I tried to,
If you believe in me,
You'll drown out at sea.

I hide my feelings under sheets,
But the sheets don't touch me,
It's just that these assumptions burn me,
They burn me.
I've got friends in high places
But my back up's been wasted on,
Situations like these
My vices come as they please.
