Lyrics
[verse]
Bought himself a house out where the sheep all graze
Traded in the traffic for a slower pace of days
Got a therapist on speed dial, got a garden he don't tend
Still can't figure out where all the pressure's gonna end
[verse]
He's got a bigger kitchen and a bigger car
Still wakes up at 3am wondering who he are
Moved out to the country chasing peace of mind
Left the noise behind but the noise ain't hard to find
[chorus]
He's got the house in the country, he's out running around
He's got the house in the country, but he's still stuck in town
All the space in the world and he still can't unwind
Funny how the quiet gets so loud in your mind
[verse]
The neighbors wave hello but he don't know their names
Playing at simplicity, still playing the same games
He bought the view, he bought the yard
Didn't think that peace of mind would be this hard
[chorus]
He's got the house in the country, he's out running around
He's got the house in the country, but he's still stuck in town
All the space in the world and he still can't unwind
Funny how the quiet gets so loud in your mind
[bridge]
Maybe there's no house that fixes what's inside
Maybe you can't outrun the feeling with a change of tide
He'll figure it out or he won't, either way
The sheep don't care, they'll graze another day
[chorus]
He's got the house in the country, he's out running around
He's got the house in the country, but he's still stuck in town
All the space in the world and he still can't unwind
Funny how the quiet gets so loud in your mind
