Blind Melon Tones of Home song lyrics

What do you think they would say

If I stood up, and I walked away

Nobody here really understands me

And so I wave goodbye, I'm fine

I'm fine...

Tones of home

Said you don't like the way I'm living

You don't like me

Tones of home, tones of home

And so I wave goodbye

I'm flyin', I'm flyin' home

And I always thought this would be

See the land of milk and honey

Oh but I come to find out that it's all hate and money

And there's a canopy of greed holding me down

Chorus

See I'm so high to you, so I'll fade away

I said you're on your own

Your mom and daddy said

That you sister said

And you brother's saying everybody

Is saying everybody

Is saying I, eye, god I gotta go!

All my friends patronize me

They say yo hey boy! Have you found what you're looking for?

It seems they don't really know me

Cause it's here, and it's what they can't see...

Chorus
