a new world

here is a child buried alive in my chest, there is a stranger makes himself home in my bed, and i don't believe even what i can see for myself, i can see for myself, through the bars of this cell, everybody wants to find a new world, everybody's looking for a sign, every day is tender as a sunburn, why can't i find mine?, why can't i find mine?, give me a mountain of silver and gold and i'll stop, build me a box of velvet and pine and i'll drop, but ask me to live what i know see i choke and i cough, yeah i choke on my scotch, can you see what i've lost, everybody wants to find a new world, everybody's looking for a sign, every day is tender as a sunburn, why can't i find mine?, why can't i find mine?, even when the grass burns black i'm waiting for it, and even when the future cracks i'm waiting for it, and even you don't come back i'm waiting for it, i'm waiting for it, waiting for it, i'm waiting for it, i'm turning over like an engine, turning over till i catch, everybody wants to find a new world, everybody's looking for a sign, every day is tender as a sunburn, why can't i find mine?, why can't i find mine?, why can't i find mine?
