lyrics

My mom, she had the foresight to preserve my life on a roll of film, I’m a kid forever on videocassette. Sometimes when I’m around, I like to watch those tapes to remind me of where I came from because sometimes I get caught up and I forget. It makes me a little sad to see that smiling little kid, I sure miss having him around. But I hold back all my tears until my mother leaves the room because I know that she still sees that little boy right now, and when the first rays of sun pass through my window in the morning, they’ll find an empty room. But please don’t worry, mom, because I will be home soon. Flipping through old albums, looking through my old drawers, makes me feel nostalgia for that time not long ago when I used to be fine just sitting in one place, but now I go from here to there looking for home. Sometimes it takes a lot to keep going, seems like despair is at my heels, but I wouldn’t trade experience for familiarity when there is so much left for us to feel. As the sun starts to set, I pause to watch the colors fade, but I’ll keep traveling by the light of the moon. Please don’t worry mom, because I will be home soon. I’ve spent uncountable days and innumerable nights in the company of people that I love, I’ve been hundreds of places and seen thousands of sights that most people only dream of, but no matter what I do, no matter who I’m with, no matter where I go, I still feel that that house in the suburbs is the closest thing I’ve got to a home, why, oh why is that house in the suburbs the closest thing I’ve got to a home? I don’t want to go back to the suburbs but I need to go home.
