paroles de chanson Crosstown Blues - Degs

I call it crosstown blues
Sometimes that path finds you
And it can make no sense
Still I tried to show love to the world
Tryna make my own case
A feeling you can never replace
I call it crosstown blues

From town to town I tried to find my home
These complexities of growing up had stunted all my growth
And after my degree and said that I would go out on my own
Rejected everything I′d known (crosstown blues)
But being away from family was hard
I never grasped the sense of unity that brightens up that path
Instead I thought that going solo was the way to make my mark

But then the nights were getting dark
I call it crosstown blues (moving from place to place)

In a house with folks I'd hardly met
Navigate the stench of alcohol and cigarettes
Friday night they partied, I had spreadsheets on my legs
Do reports and go to bed (oh-oh-oh, oh)
Am I finally having regrets?
Needed to escape but now restricted to my bed
Knowing that the week is gonna start over again

Start over again

I call it crosstown blues
Sometimes that path finds you
And it can make no sense
Still I tried to show love to the world
Tryna make my own case
A feeling you can never replace
I call it crosstown blues

Wish people would say what they mean
Had a couple different jobs
Not one of them were what they seemed
The longest hours for some pittance
A young man with some dreams

There′s those that take advantage
Sell a life with things you need
And I was sold right down that river
With nothing guaranteed

So when you question people's ethics
In all these companies
You are immediately a target
Progression hits the freeze
What part of this did I misread?

I call it crosstown blues (moving from place to place)
