Now this house ain't a home

That part of me that never left
Has so much to see, no regrets
What you're meant to be doesn't have to be
You never know what's just around the corner

Mothers to daughters
Who turn sons into fathers
In time, we all grow taller
While sometimes feeling smaller
Now this house ain't a home
No, this house ain't a home

The darkness blocking my view
Outside, they’re loud, judging everything
Feeling small, I breathe out my complaints
Someone else defines my beliefs and values
This place feels cold to me, so cold
The whole world feels dizzy to me, so dizzy
I need to escape, fully ourselves
To a place that can embrace us
Let’s tear down the curtains and head to my new home

I’m still playing instead of being home
Like a kid who left at three, still stuck in my ways
The slide felt cozier than my bed
Not knowing the value of my old home, just stacking up new ones
The silhouette outside my window
That voice echoing from the hallway
Even the TV we gathered around on Sunday nights
I miss that place that was just a house

That part of me that never left
Has so much to see, no regrets
What you're meant to be doesn't have to be
You never know what's just around the corner

Mothers to daughters
Who turn sons into fathers
In time, we all grow taller
While sometimes feeling smaller
Now this house ain't a home
No, this house ain't a home

Hey, I asked myself
Are you still there?
Growing up without balance
Hating yourself for who you are
Where exactly is it, maybe somewhere, yeah
I need to find the sea of rest

So I leave for the wide plains
Leaving the endless road behind
When night falls, the anxiety comes
It's a taste that's hard to bear
I swallow hard, tears start to flow
A downpour in my blurry eyes
One more day to hold on, just one more
Hoping to reach that place someday

That part of me that never left
Has so much to see, no regrets
What you're meant to be doesn't have to be
You never know what's just around the corner

Mothers to daughters
Who turn sons into fathers
In time, we all grow taller
While sometimes feeling smaller
Now this house ain't a home
No, this house ain't a home

'Cause this house ain't a home
'Cause this house ain't a home
