Hometown On The Border

Hometown on the border
Soldiers walking the fields
Tapping their heels right up to your door
Nothing really out of the ordinary
Nothing really out of the ordinary

I fool myself, helps to keep you safe and insulated
Just ignore the facts and try to get creative
To put the world in order
Hometown on the border

The world of pretend was always a friend
In a hometown on the border
But eventually, amid the debris
Reality strikes and it hits you

What you always thought was ordinary
Really isn’t all that ordinary

I fool myself, helps to keep you safe and insulated
Just ignore the facts

When truth can only make you cry
Lies can only make you feel better
When truth can only make you cry

I fool myself, helps to keep you safe and insulated
Just ignore the facts and try to get creative
To put the world in order
Hometown on the border
Hometown on the border
