lyrics

if home is where the heart is
my heart must be a graveyard
we sit in while we wait for the train
if my body is a temple, it's a rundown rental
i can't afford to live there anyway

i've got nowhere to go except this lonely old road
too familiar with the feeling that something just ain't right
this year has been a 365 day long bad fucking night

and i just can't breathe in that crowded dusty air anymore
this world wasn't made for me
and survival is behind a dead bolted door
i find it hard to give a shit anymore

if home is where the heart is, i snuck into my heart
through a broken window by the back porch
i'm a thief over-encumbered looking for a place to slumber
somewhere beneath the loose floorboards

or i'll just lay down on the tracks
where i'm going, i ain't coming back
i need the type of rest that i will never wake up from

and i just can't sleep feeling stressed out and stuck anymore
home ain't nothing but a place to die
so i walk out the front door
no, i ain't coming around anymore

and when i'm sleeping, i'm dreaming of leaving
dreaming of leaving, dreaming of going away
when i'm sleeping, i'm dreaming of leaving
but when i wake up, there's a million reasons i gotta stay
