When you don't have a home
You tell yourself ur not alone
My fathers floating on nothing
And my mothers drowning in trying
One wants to die
And the other one just lies
I've written one too many songs about my family line
But none of them can explain the entire story right
When you don't have a home
You tell yourself ur not alone
My fathers floating on nothing
And my mothers drowning in trying
One wants to die
And the other one just lies
That's what happens
Over and over again
When you don't have a home
She's sacrificing her children to save other children
Sometimes I wanna scream, "We're right here, your real children"
Help us
We don't feel numb because we're teenagers
We feel numb because we're hurt
Alert
Turn that switch on inside ur head
Make the bed
Don't sleep on top of the blanket
If I'm such a curse, then why am I here?
When you don't have a home
You tell yourself ur not alone
My fathers floating on nothing
My mothers drowning in trying
One wants to die
And the other one just lies
That's what happens
Over and over again
When you don't have a home
I don't need therapy
I don't need it
I don't need love
I don't need it
I don't need good parents
I don't need it
I don't need it
I'm fine
I'm alright
I'm okay
I'm not insane
Just please don't break me one more time
So let me tell the story right
When you don't have a home
You tell yourself ur not alone
My fathers floats on nothing
And my mother drowns by trying
One wants to die
And the other one just lies
That's what happens
Over and over again
When you don't have a home
That's what happens
When you don't have a home
