about

"Home to You" is a song about the rigid thinking of a young mind.

lyrics

HOME TO YOU

When I was younger I knew what was wrong or right
It couldn’t be clearer what for to fight
but later, later
things got complicated

When I was younger I wanted simple answers
hated nothing more than those philosophical sermons
but later, later,
my mind got complicated

This guy I once met, he was sweet, he was real
he saw me, understood me, let me be me, but
he said something I didn’t wanna hear, oh:

”What was home to you once
What was home to you once
What was home to you once isn’t home to you anymore.”

When I was younger it was us and them
I knew where I belonged
We were superior
But later, later
I noticed that we’re all the same.

This guy I once met, he was sweet, he was real
he saw me, understood me, let me be me, but
he said something I didn’t wanna hear, oh:

”What was home to you once
What was home to you once
What was home to you once isn’t home to you anymore.”

Now I’m older
still looking for answers, thinking
no-one knows me well enough
to fortell my evolution
no shrink, no priest, not him
could ever teach
how to be me

Now I’m older
still looking for answers
but other than that it seems like
I’m not that same person
And his home, his home
is not my home either

What was home to you once
isn’t home to you anymore
What was home to you once
A home to you once
What was home to you once
isn’t home to you anymore
- Is it home to me anymore?
