A door
A bed
A roof above my head
Adore the man that didn't end it all and said
"We should be friends" or
"We should be more"
I build a home
In a house
On these souls
I know her face
Her name
When mine was a stranger to me
I know a place
Retrace these plates
My heart lay down its guard
I build a home
In a house
On these souls
This is my home
These songs on car rides home
We sing all along
I make caves out of ribcage
I close my eyes that bones don't set in stone
And arms hug but legs run
I'm still lost and not found
I'm homesick to familiarity
Where streets said hi they smiled at me
Avoiding feelings
New beginnings
I've tried
Kissing faces
Leaving places
I cried
Time to pack up
All my baggage
For a one-way ticket home
But home's overgrown
I make caves out of ribcage
I close my eyes and bones don't set in stone
And arms hug but legs run
I'm still lost and not found
But I'm still homesick to familiarity
Where the streets said hi they smiled at me
Lunchboxes and hallways
Streetlights and birthdays
Not a door with no bed
Just two souls
I'm back home
