Everyone from my hometown’s married now

And if they’re not, they’re just waiting for a chance to settle down

And Wyatt still sells weed from his parents’ basement

But the high is not as good now that our lives are complicated

And I wish I could be happy, playing safe and playing nice

I wish I could be happy with what I know

Cause I don’t feel at home

But I want to

I really want to

I don’t feel at home

But I don’t need to

I just need to

Live a little, make a mess

Know it’s fine to be a wreck

And if I need to, come back home

When I was five I had a thing for danger

Thought that when I grew up I’d be a sick-ass power-ranger

I'm still young but now I'm scared of failing

Tell me when did we get jaded and stop thinking we could be famous

'Cause I don’t feel at home

But I want to

I really want to

I don’t feel at home

But I don’t need to

I just need to

Live a little, make a mess

Know it’s fine to be a wreck

And if I need to, come back home

I refuse to be complacent

I don’t want to go through the ages

Wishing I was someone else

Someone who is brave and chainless

'Cause I don’t feel at home

But I don’t want to

I don’t want to

I don’t feel at home

But I don’t need to

I just need to

Live a little, make a mess

Know it’s fine to be a wreck

And if I need to, come back home
