Yes, I'm leaving
Leaving so as not to be left
I'm returning each book I've borrowed 
To lenders unread and unfinished
They're the least of the stories I grieve to be leaving behind

Twice over now I'll be no one
A particle stirred in the wake of the crowd
And it's so hard to hear myself, hear myself dreaming
When everyone's dreaming so loud

The Noise
You're nearly 25 now
Voices buzzing like flies

I've mapped every crevice and corner
Worn every step to these stumbling heels
Can hardly control my retracing old haunts
Too haunting to hallow these years

The Noise
La da da, la da da, la da da da
Voices buzzing like flies

Oh yes, I'm leaving
Leaving so as not to be left
I'm returning each book I've borrowed 
To lenders unread and unfinished
They're the least of the stories I grieve to be leaving behind
They're the least of the stories I grieve to be leaving for mine

The beds of my comfort go empty
These children of longing too restless to stay
Impartial, the poison of knowing
All of your friends have it going their way

The Noise
You're nearly 25 now
Voices buzzing like flies

I stand at the edge of my knowing
These streets fan below like a spider-cracked mirror
And there's so many ways to be, ways to be going
But only on way to be here

The Noise
La da da, la da da, la da da da
Voices buzzing like...

Cars on the freeway that ferry my things 
Across Pontchartrain to the mouth where the River sings:
Patience and Growth
But it's hopeless to hear
Only Noise
You're nearly 25 now
