Lyrics of Tourist

I wish that clouds could hold me up
Like i thought as a child, growing up
I wish i could sound
Soothing as the rainfall
But i am only a drop from the storm

Feel like a tourist out in the country
Once this whole world was all countryside
Feel like a tourist in the big city
Soon i will simply evaporate

The streams up north
The drums down south
They take across afghanistan
A long time ago
You're shuffling your feet into the next dimension
Soon skyscrapers will be everywhere

I feel like a tourist lost in the suburbs
Soon our whole world will be urban sprawl
Feel like a lover out on the ocean
Feel like a teardrop streaming off your chin

Some will bet against you
Try even to prevent you
But not many can stop you man
If you got a perfect plan

Can they possibly try
Demand to know why
They would bow to you
In this sad a thousand generations

Feel like a tourist out in the desert
Somehow it feels like the devil's breath
Feel like a tourist out in this swampland
This world is just of water and land

Everywhere i go i'm a tourist
But if you stay with me i'll always be at home
