[ Featuring OurVinyl ]
[Verse 1]
My bedroom looks the same
But that is not how it feels
I guess the dog is now dead
My little sister, in heels
She drives her own car now
Wears a ring in her nose
Mom and dad play pretend
But it's over and we know
[Chorus]
This was a home once
Now the ceiling's falling, I feel the rain
This was a home once
With so much love comes so much pain
[Verse 2]
My mother's face is like stone
My father comes and he goes
And our neighbors now they moved away to Mexico
Reality comes once I finally hear
""Son I've been waiting for this moment for 13 years""
[Chorus]
This was a home once
Can I say something to change your mind?
This was a home once
All these years go by and I've been blind
[Bridge]
And as one chapter ends another chapter begins
Now my life revolves around cliches I hated as a kid
My sister's still young, I hate to see her face blue
Though we can't control the rest one thing will always be true
[Chorus]
This was a home once
Where we found our way, oh the golden days
This was a home once
Where my life begun, where life moves on
This was a home once
This was a home once
This was a home once (Was a home, was a home once)
This was a home once (Was a home, was a home once)
This was a home once
This was a home once
