Lyrics
i thought i left you back in boise
i thought i left you there to stay
but when i unpacked my memories
i found a stowaway
i thought i left a lie behind me
i thought i started out brand new
but here you are inside of me
whispering the truth
i tune my banjo to the darkness of this empty room
but i don't hear a note i play
the light of darkness will be here soon
but it just means another day
my stowaway
i thought that i would just continue
down this road to emptiness
why should i try something new
when i'm used to life like this
i thought that you were just another
flame who's coals would die
but here we are with each other
in the lonely tears i cry
i tune my banjo to the darkness of this empty room
but i don't hear a note i play
the light of darkness will be here soon
but it just means another day
my stowaway
