Home Sick

I used to fall to sleep at night with the peace that you were near.

Just knowing that when morning came, it was your voice I would hear.

I would go about my day, blaring music in my car.

I could actually hear music, because I knew you weren't far.

Now I have faced what one should never have to fear.

My home was in your eyes and laughter, but you have left me here.

I am home sick now, you took away my home.

And so all I can do is allow my soul to roam.

These feelings seem to never disappear

My heart is always heavy and my mind is never clear.

Chains around my ankles and I know they're mine to break

But you left so suddenly and my effort would be fake.

I play my music still, with it turned up all the way.

But I do not hear music, I just hear what I can't say.

I am home sick now, I let my home disappear.

So I try my best to find comfort in the unfamiliar.

Now I have faced what one should never have to fear

My home was in your eyes and laughter, but you have left me here.

I am home sick now, you took away my home.

And so all I can do is allow my sould to roam. 

These feelings seem to never disappear

My heart is always heavy and my mind is never clear.

Chains around my ankles and I know they're mine to break

But you left so suddenly and my effort would be fake.

I am home sick now, I let my home disappear.

So I try my best to find comfort in the unfamiliar.
