Story Behind The Song
Some things are easier said then done, this song being no exception. For this is a summary of about two thousand miles on the road, if not more, by myself in pursuit of a dream.
Song Description
Everyone has feelings and a heart inside. If people would ever take the time to look on the inside instead of always on the outside they'd see everyone really has a lot in common...and this world would be a different place.

Lyrics
New York got my call
My name and numbers on each wall
In that town where every block looks the same
I'm moving on, for something better today
LA sounds so great
Where the people and weather never change
So I took my chance in hand for the cause
To never put my life on pause
I'm just a boy looking for my home
Trying to live wherever on my own
Torn in two, falling here and there
I'm just a boy running anywhere
I'm just a boy looking everywhere
Past the hills and painted lights
Thrown webs have blinded my sight
But now I see you're trying to hide
That we're all just the boy if you'd look inside
I'm just a boy looking for my home
Trying to live wherever on my own
Torn in two, falling here and there
I'm just a boy running anywhere
I'm just a boy looking everywhere
With my feet off the ground
Wondering if I'll ever be found
Now I know what I've always seen
You're more like me then you'd ever believe
I'm just a boy looking for my home
Trying to live wherever on my own
Torn in two, falling here and there
I'm just a boy running anywhere
I'm just a boy headed somewhere
I'm just a boy searching out there
I'm just a boy looking everywhere
