[Verse 1]
Why can't we speak another language?
One we'll all agree on?
Why when men look outside, they see houses?
Instead of the field we move on
We are constantly uprooted from, making stars so fearful
Can't you get up right now, endeavor to free fall?

[Pre-Chorus]
You can fall if you want to
It's just a matter of how far
You've treasured your town
You've forgotten where you are
It will stay with you
Till your mind's been found
It has been found wandering around

[Chorus]
With our skipping rope and trampoline
The crafty smoke that made us choke
We can't give up
The simple ways of getting paid
The carelessness of running away
I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed, stayed

[Verse 2]
Patterns all arranged in my background
Posts keeping us in form
Letters wrote and sent with no addresses
So people can't discover
Why am i always trying to find something instead?
Speaking words you so deserve

I don't own my clothes, but I own my mind
It's not what you lost but it's what you find
I don't own my clothes, but I own my mind
It's not what you lost but it's what you find

[Chorus]
With our skipping rope and trampoline
The crafty smoke that made us choke
We can't give up
The simple ways of getting paid
The carelessness of running away
I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed, stayed

[Bridge]
You can fall if you want to
It's just a matter of how far
You've treasured your town
You've forgotten where you are
'Cause it will stay with you till your mind's been found
It has been found wandering around

[Chorus]
With our skipping rope and trampoline
The crafty smoke that made us choke
We can't give up
The simple ways of getting paid
The carelessness of running away
I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed, stayed
