"Latchkey Kid" lyrics

"Latchkey Kid"

Glass kept breaking
Words kept a shaping a tone
I remember
Early mornings
Loneliness in my bones
Such a temper

Latchkey kid, heart of gold
No one told you that
You're not on your own
You'll find home in

Nights lost in dreams
Counting all the cars
Tracing rain on windows
Watching shows you don't wanna see
With arms you wanna be in
You won't have to go
Hide in places where
You kept your heart alone
You'll find love at home

Red Rose Garden
Prison yard, all the same
Why remember
Bedtime stories when they just went up in flames?
Teardrop embers

Latchkey kid, heart of gold
No one told you that
Things will turn out alright
You'll find home in

Nights lost in dreams
Counting all the cars
Tracing rain on windows
Watching shows you don't wanna see
With arms you wanna be in
You won't have to go
Hide in places where
You kept your heart alone
'Cause you'll find love at home

No one told you that
You're not on your own
You'll find home in

Nights lost in dreams
Coloring in stars
Dancing with our shadows
Watching shows you don't wanna see
With the girl you wanna be with
You won't have to go
Back to places where
Doors stay locked and closed
You'll find love at home

Latchkey kid, heart of gold
