Homecoming - Thin Skin

Your head is the house I grew up in

I don’t want to see someone home

I’m the pain on the walls

You can cover me in coats

But you’re never at home alone

I know you’ve already won

You’ve made it so hard to move on

Stay where you are

Leave me alone

I swear I did my best to grow these roses from the ash

But the soil it was tainted, the flora couldn’t last

The notches I scratched in your bedpost

The marker on the door frame to mark my growth

And the photo albums planned but never made

I burned the house down it stayed that way

I always find myself driving through the ruins

Smoking my lungs black where our home once stood

Your head is the house I grew up in
