lyrics

Been thinking about all the places that I’ve called “home”
Just another town I was hanging around till I make it on my own
But each time felt more like a try out like I was under a microscope
Tried to settle in tried to settle down then I settled

Keep thinking about all the people that I’ve called “home”
Just another crowd I was hanging around till I make it on my own
Each time it doesn’t work out lose a little more hope
Try to settle in, try to settle down but can’t settle

They say you’re only as good as the company you keep
but lately I’ve been keeping to myself
I never understood what it meant anyhow

There’s a ghost upstairs, he stamps, he shouts, he screams until the morning
But it’s the melody that he always sings that keeps me from sleeping
And there’s a girl somewhere I guess you could say that she got away though I disagree
Cause her beauty was a welcome mat, she said “wipe your feet and hang your hat”
But I couldn’t stay for long

These days, my minds more like a maze
filled with thoughts that stalk me like minotaurs they try to eat me whole
So say you’ll be my ball of twine and I swear I’ll be fine
Knowing you can lead me home
