Locked In My Room Lyrics - Better Days - Shawn Mullins

Sometimes it's hard to stay sane 

Dogtags like shackles on my brain 

We've got a language of our own 

You learn to talk bad 

When you're far from home. 

Dusty books on my shelf 

It's kind of like running from yourself 

Five years between the two extremes 

I lived my life in books, 

Or so it seems. 

And all I could see was an older me 

I had to reach down inside 

Before life took me for a ride 

I lie awake at night, 

I don't know wrong from right 

And no one realy knows who you are 

But they're all telling you 

That you're gonna go far
