lyrics

“I don’t know” was a road like an arrow
Pointed outward and back at me every time I wondered
What you’d say, what you mean
Can you hold me inside?
I found out in time that
You’re no place for me to call home
You’re no place for me to call home

There’s no winter here
It’s just raining sometimes
And I still think of fun
And the “once-in-a-while’s”
They put a stop sign on your street
I’m sure that you noticed
I hope it keeps you cautious
Protecting something you don’t need

And on my way back I know
You’re no place for me to call home
You’re no place for me to call home

All you ever wanted was to
Think of yourself as an artist
But you couldn't get out of your own way

If beauty makes you cringe
How can you stand making anything
There is no pity I can give you
It must be hard to be you but I like it
You think it’s hard to be you but you like it

I memorized all the stoplights
I know them by heart every time
But I still skip them I’m reckless with myself
Tap the car roof each time

You told me other people can’t make you happy
Gave me the wrong directions saying
You have to find it
You have to find it

And on my way back I know
I am my own place to call home
I am my own place to call home
I am my own place to call home
I am my own place to call home
I am my own place to call home
I am my own place to call home
I am my own place to call home
I am my own place to call home
