lyrics

The air once silent
Is now filled with your voice
I tried to converse
But it all sounds like noise
I hoped that you might understand what I need
But then I saw your traps all springing

But I was never meant to feel so safe
Domestic and reliant on your grace
No longer free to wander
To curiously roam
To sit all day and ponder
How this can be a home
When it's so small

So stop giving reasons
Can't you see I don't care
There's no justifying
Hunting something so rare
Every night I close my eyes and dive into the green
Until the morning when I wake up crying

It's cliched to say that I can't feel
Anything except the pain that I make real
But as these thorns wrap 'round me
It feels like going home
So leave me as you found me
Lost and all alone
Where I'm happy

But I was never meant to feel so safe
Domestic and reliant on your grace
No longer free to wander
To curiously roam
To sit all day and ponder
How this can be a home
When it's so small
