"Home" lyrics

"Home"

And I don't want to go home
Oh I don't want to go home right now
And I don't want to go home
Oh I don't want to go home right now

You're just scared that's all said Anastasia
You could learn to love like the rest of us if you wanted to
I took another sip of my half stale whisky thinking
Damn it I should be drinking something stronger
And anyway she said
It's not like you can get some sort of doctor's note
For a broken heart
It won't show up on your ultrasound screaming ouch
Somebody hurt me
And even if it did stop your complaining
It's an honour to feel like that
Because if it doesn't hurt when everything's said
And done and over with what was the fucking point

And I don't want to go home
Oh I don't want to go home right now
And I don't want to go home
Oh I don't want to go home right now

You see when I was a little kid my brother and I
We used to pretend we were from some other planet
Like we were moon children destined for greatness
Maybe greatness wasn't as great as we thought
Maybe the best I could ever hope for was to be from Earth
It gives us enough sun in the summertime to keep us happy
And snow in the winter to keep us humble
And remind us we're not the biggest kid on the block
No matter which block were from
Because there's a lot of blocks

And I don't want to go home
Oh I don't want to go home right now
And I don't want to go home
Oh I don't want to go home right now
And I don't want to go home
Oh I don't want to go home right now
And I don't want to go home
Oh I don't want to go home right now

We all seem to remember who our first kiss
Last dance was with
And all the middle in between
Fades into the side-lines back of my mind
As I grow old and tired and time draws its lines on my skin
It's like a road map to all the places I've been
And the cars that crashed in the middle of the night
'Cause alcohol was winning the fight
School yard fist fights black eyes
The times I said I love you and nobody replied
Stop you're complaining said Anastasia
It's supposed to feel like that
Because if it doesn't hurt when everything's said
And done and over with what was the fucking point
