Bright Eyes Tourist Trap Lyrics

Tourist Trap Lyrics

It's not the road we used to know

They tore some buildings down

The traffic's like a pack of dogs

There's fewer trees, windows, fleas

Concrete on the lawn

There's people here but you are gone



And I find still swimming through time

Afraid some days I've reached the shore

Make yourself free, man said that to me

Now, my heart is like an open door



And the road finally gave me back

But I don't think I'll unpack

Because I'm not sure if I live here any more



It's not my weight that makes me faint

Or the sugar in my blood

The way these strangers stand so close

They say my name like a guessing game

"Is that really you?" No, I don't think it ever was



In the spring when the world's turning green

I only think about the fall

And the frets on the board, my progression of chords

Oh, how I want this to resolve



And the road finally gave me back

But I don't think I'll unpack

Because I'm not sure if I live here any more



Now, the road finally gave me back

But I don't think I'll unpack

Because I'm not sure if I live here

No, I'm not sure if I live here anymore

I'm not sure if I live here anymore
