What you're looking for is never what you find *1
Nothing ever seems to turn out right *1
Still running around still searching
all these long indifferent streets
For your lover or some cover
to protect you from the heat
That you feel inside *2
inflamed since you learned to cry
Ever since you learned to walk you ran away *1
kept running till you couldn't feel your legs *1
Now you stumble round this drunken town
pawn shops and titty bars
telling tales of just how far you got
But they'll all know who you are
Yeah you're not so great *2
You're just early out of the gate
there's a portrait of your mom when she was young *1
Her face was shining brightly as the sun *1
The son who got away from her
but came back home again
to find a women wrapped
with all this love she couldn't give
But you know she did *2
You just couldn't feel it then
Found a birthday card from this lady I used to know *1
It said boy you're really starting to get old *1
She's the mother of my mother
I knew just what she meant
She'd been through it before
she'd known of all of this resentment
becomes regret *2
I just hadn't gotten there yet *1
Nothing ever seems to turn out right
No never, never seems to turn out right
So I leave it at this *2
my deepest regret
