Totem

And I walk alone
Because I can't seem to sleep
With these fears underneath
My pillow back home
And I'm moving slow
Because I can't find the need
To rush the world at my feet
While you're tired I know

You're like a totem to me
You know I carry you around
Just like you told him to be
Every time I leave this town
You're like a totem to me
I know you carry me around
Can't bring back what used to be
It's like what's lost was never found

There are ghosts in these rooms
But they're all fine with me
Just as long as that means
You'll be hanging here too
There are men and there's fools
But when no one's to blame
Aren't we all just the same
As the ones and their twos?

You're like a totem to me
You know I carry you around
Just like you told him to be
Every time I leave this town
You're like a totem to me
I know you carry me around
Can't bring back what used to be
It seems the queen misplaced her crown

It's been a real harsh summer

You're like a totem to me
You know I carry you around
Just like you told him to be
Every time I leave this town
You're like a totem to me
I know you carry me around
Can't bring back what used to be
It's like what's lost was never found

It's been a real harsh summer

You were there when I got here
I can be there when you leave
