Come Home

Ever since I was young
Father told me son some day you'll be someone

I don't know why

Tell me why I always choke
On the painful words we should've spoke
Left alone so long ago
To find my own way home
Back to sleepless nights while barely breathing
Falling short of everything I've ever tried achieving

Tell mom
I won't come home tonight
I've failed too many times to get another try

But they said to just give it time
Cause I know one day you'll let me go

Take the best parts of these past five years
Lay them out in front of me
Choke me till I cease to breathe
Then I'll be gone
Instead of wasting every breath
On something useless that we never said
Which leaves me all alone to wait for hope and cut this rope
