Ohio

At 14 I used to talk to myself
 Paint my bedroom with stars
 One for each time my dad flaked out
 Got a galaxy of scars
 You know that feeling that you get when ya
 Start to run out of breath and ya
 Pass out, wake up, wig out not knowing where you are
 I'm safer here inside my submarine
 'Cause when I'm under water you can't say anything
 I can't hear anything
 O-o-o-o-ohio
 I don't need Hollywood
 I don't need New York heights or Las Vegas lights
 I need O-o-o-o-ohio
 I've never even been there
 But I'd rather fall asleep in an open field in Ohio
 Ohio
 Ohio
 Ohi-
 Last time I saw your face
 You were screaming that I don't have a clue
 I'm not a deadbeat piece of shit
 Dad, I'll never learn that from you
 You know that feeling when you're weak and ya
 Wish your brain could delete for ya
 All the types of twisted contradictions that I worked so hard to lose
 I'm safer here inside my submarine
 'Cause when I'm under water you can't throw words at me
 I'm just learning how to leave
 O-o-o-o-ohio
 I don't need Hollywood
 I don't need New York heights or Las Vegas lights
 I need O-o-o-o-ohio
 I've never even been there
 But I'd rather fall asleep in an open field in Ohio
 Ohio
 Ohio
 Ohio
 Ohio
 Growing up, and we're all dying
 We're all growing up, and we're all trying
 We're all growing up, and we're all dying
 We're all growing up, and we're all trying
 We're all growing up, and we're all dying
 We're all growing up, and we're all trying
 O-o-o-o-ohio
 I don't need Hollywood
 I don't need New York heights or Las Vegas lights
 I need O-o-o-o-ohio
 I've never even been there
 But I'd rather fall asleep in an open field in Ohio
