Left This Town
Embracing Freedom: Finding Home Beyond the Horizon
Lyrics
All my cares are gone gone gone
All my worries or concerns have disappeared completely.
Since I left this town
This feeling of relief started after I departed from this place.
And all my days are twice as long
My days feel much longer now, possibly due to a change in perspective or experiences.
Since I left this town
This elongated sense of time began after I departed from this town.
And I’m not worried about dying or death
I no longer fear death or worry about dying.
That’s all buried in the ground
These worries about mortality are no longer troubling me; they are resolved or put to rest.
All my cares are gone gone gone
Similar to line 1, my worries or concerns have vanished entirely.
Since I left this town
This state of freedom from worries commenced after my departure from this place.
And all my friends said I won’t last long
My friends predicted I wouldn't thrive for long after leaving this town.
Since I left this town
Since I left, their prediction has proven wrong, and I've discovered a comfortable place to call home.
But I have found my home sweet home
After leaving this town, I have found a place where I feel content and settled.
Since I left this town
This newfound sense of belonging started after my departure.
And I’m not sitting in traffic man
I'm not stuck in traffic anymore, not subjected to the noise of highways.
Listening to that Highway sound
This situation of being stuck in traffic and hearing constant highway sounds is behind me.
All my cares are gone gone gone

Since I left this town
Continued sense of relief and freedom from worries since departing.
I’m not worried about dying or death

that’s all buried in the ground
A repetition indicating that these concerns about mortality are resolved or no longer troubling.
All my cares are gone gone gone
Similar to lines 1 and 9, reiterating the complete absence of worries or concerns.
Since I left this town
Re-emphasizing the continuous sense of freedom from worries since leaving this town.
Since I left this town
