All the Soft Places to Fall
Seeking Soft Places: A Ballad of Redemption and Homelife
Lyrics
Most of my lfe I've been runnin' around
Expressing a history of constantly moving and being active
Playin' and havin' a ball
Enjoying life, having fun, and being carefree
And maybe I've been on a party too long
Suggesting a realization that the party lifestyle may have lasted too long
These mem'ries are fond to recall
Reflecting on pleasant memories
You see we've got this thing
Having a shared preference for women who smoke and quality alcohol
About women smokin' and good alcohol
Emphasizing a particular lifestyle centered around these preferences
Now I'm lookin' for a homelife
Expressing a desire for a stable home life
And clean smellin' sheets
Seeking comfort and cleanliness represented by fresh sheets
And all the soft places to fall
Yearning for supportive and comforting environments
The women we've known have been many
Acknowledging a history of encounters with many women
But they don't understand us at all
Highlighting a lack of understanding from these women
Though we've spent many a long hours
Spending time hoping for a reconnection with past loves
Hopin' some old love would call
Reflecting on the uncertainty of receiving such calls
Surely somebody somewhere still wants us
Expressing a desire to be wanted and appreciated
Or don't nobody wants us at all
Considering the possibility of being unwanted
We're lookin' for a homelife
Reiterating the quest for a stable home life
And clean smellin' sheets
Reemphasizing the importance of cleanliness and comfort
And all the soft places to fall
Desiring supportive and nurturing environments
Most of our lives we've been outlaws
Describing a life marked by rebelliousness and defiance
Slept with our backs to the wall
Indicating a tendency to be cautious and defensive
I'm a rambler I'm a seeker
Identifying as a wanderer and a searcher
And we're gettin' weaker
Recognizing vulnerability and an increased likelihood of falling
A whole lot more likely to fall
Stating a weariness with challenges and obstacles
We're tired of the rocks and brambles
Expressing a desire for a more comfortable and settled life
Those barbed wire fences and all
Mentioning the tiresome nature of difficult situations
We're lookin' for a homelife
Continuing the search for stability and comfort
And clean smellin' sheets
Emphasizing the importance of cleanliness and pleasant surroundings
And all the soft places to fall
Desiring soft and comforting spaces to land
Most of our lives we've been outlaws
Reiterating a life of rebelliousness and defiance
Slept with our backs to the wall
Maintaining a defensive stance in life
I'm a rambler I'm a seeker
Affirming the identity as a wanderer and searcher
And we're gettin' weaker
Acknowledging increased vulnerability and the possibility of falling
A whole lot more likely to fall
Stressing weariness with challenges and obstacles
We're tired of the rocks and brambles
Expressing a longing for a more comfortable and settled life
Those barbed wire fences and all
Highlighting the difficulty of challenging situations
We're lookin' for a homelife
Continuing the search for stability and comfort
And clean smellin' sheets
Reemphasizing the importance of cleanliness and pleasant surroundings
And all the soft places to fall
Desiring soft and comforting spaces to land
