I'd Rather Be Miserable At Home

(album: Red Walls - 2015)

I walked down this stretching road lined
With all the people that I used to know, I
Happened to notice that none of them were you
Better believe that I've been
Carrying half of a heart waiting to be filled
I'd do anything to hold you but I don't think there
Will be another again

This doesn't feel like home
(If you're not here)
I hope when you're alone
(You think of how we're)
Growing up but that doesn't mean this town is just a memory
I can't help but hate the sound
(Of the silence)
Knowing you're not around
(My reliance)
On you has helped me get through this
How can I come home if there's no one to come home to?

It's been awhile since I've seen your face, oh
Do you remember our old special place? No
You really need to come back to me
Cause the memories don't mean a thing if
You're not here to remember them with me
Yeah all those times we rode our bikes, yeah we felt so free
I need you more than you'd believe

This doesn't feel like home
(If you're not here)
I hope when you're alone
(You think of how we're)
Growing up but that doesn't mean this town is just a memory
I can't help but hate the sound
(Of the silence)
Knowing you're not around
(My reliance)
On you has helped me get through this
How can I come home if there's no one to come home to?

I need you here to make my fear just disappear, okay?
Cause I can't do it, no I just can't do it
I tried so hard to disregard the fact you didn't stay
You said you'd work through it, you didn't work through it
You can't expect me to give up so easily, think about you everyday
The only thing I want is for you to come home
Come home

This doesn't feel like home
(If you're not here)
I hope when you're alone
(You think of how we're)
Growing up but that doesn't mean this town is just a memory
This doesn't feel like home
(If you're not here)
I hope when you're alone
(You think of how we're)
Growing up but that doesn't mean this town is just a memory
I can't help but hate the sound
(Of the silence)
Knowing you're not around
(My reliance)
On you has helped me get through this
How can I come home if there's no one to come home to?
