Life
K. Fox Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don’t really have a home
Just four wheels that push the earth around me
The scenery comes and goes
But it’s always interesting
I think about the comfort of a home
Wife, dog, stability
But this is a style of life
That lends itself to being lonely

Is it hard for you to set your alarm?

Do you find comfort in your mailing address?
I’m just trying to find the best way to be alive
