Feel Like Home

These days are dark and the nights are cold

People actin like they lost their soul

And everywhere I go, I see another person like me

Tryin to make it all feel like home

These days are dark and the nights are cold

People actin like they lost their soul

And everywhere I go, I see another person like me

Tryin to make it all feel like home

Standin on the bridge in the dark

And I'm seein my breath

Tryin to make it home without freezin to death

And my grandfather's face is stuck in my mind

And how seein him tonight's gonna be the last time

I shoulda brought a jacket

Blowin in my hands like it's really gonna stop the chill

I buy a cup of coffee with a 5 dollar bill

Thinkin layin in that box people look so still

At times like these you start thinking

Your first breath in and the clock starts tickin

I'm not tryin to bum anyone out

Not trying to be dramatic just thinkin out loud

I'm just trying to make some sense in my mind

Some defense from the cold that I'm feelin outside

And for a minute escapewith some rhythm and rhyme

And get away from the grey just a bit at a time

Kinda funny how this world can treat ya

Like a freak in a sideshow

A carnival creature

Climbin outta cans, I'm a diamond in the sand

But you cant tell the difference in a beach of rhinestones

My life's like tryin to swallow a pinecone

It's tough when you live fast just to die slow

Talk to dial tones my dreams are far fetched it seems

So I sleep underneath this park bench

I know it dont make sense

And I dont expect for you to know what it's like

Smoke, drink, pissin everything off in my sight

Push rocks in a pipe

Lift-off I keep puffin til my lips turn white

And my chest gets tight

But who the fuck really cares

When you're so far left that even death is right

All I can do is hope for the best

And pray that it gets a little better than yesterday

These days are dark and the nights are cold

People actin like they lost their soul

And everywhere I go, I see another person like me

Tryin to make it all feel like home

These days are dark and the nights are cold

People actin like they lost their soul

And everywhere I go, I see another person like me

Tryin to make it all feel like home

Yo

Part of me, I think I [mixed the word] - this isn't right but no idea what it really is - "next to hurl"??

Too many problems goin on thats why I left my girl

Packed my bags and I travel with a pen and my notepad

Who said I was broke and all the things that I dont have

But still I try to find a way to escape from what I hate

Planted in my head that led to mistakes

But now I'm breakin the mold see I was patient and calm

Many sleep in the rain but I'm awake in the storm

Writin my life in a short film

The rise and fall

How I managed to scorch hills and climb the wall

Pound pavement, aimless in this cold existence

Even the things that change and I'm going the distance

Overcoming the depth I had controlled for so long

And put it all behind me cos life still goes on

Now I'm much stronger, I know where I stand

We'll all soul search over and over again

These days are dark and the nights are cold

People actin like they lost their soul

And everybody's tryin not to cry

Tryina get by and tryin not to feel outta control

And if you look hard enough, sometimes you'll find

A place that might just remind you of home

But if it doesn't feel like home,

You can do what I do

Just pretend you don't feel so alone (so alone, so alone...)

Feel like home

Feel like home

Feel like home

Feel like home

Feel like home

Feel like home

Feel like home

Feel like home
