lyrics

I've lived some in lots of places
None long enough to call them home
It's hard to keep track of the numbers
Streets and suburbs, keys and phones
I remember parts of all of them
I remember hidden rooms
I used to sit out on that balcony
Thinking it must be time to move

If I wake up in the middle
Of a fitful dream at night
I sometimes stare into the darkness
Filled with small amounts of fright
For these shadows seem familiar
But they also seem so strange
Is this a new house or an old one?
Is it the house or me that's changed?

Now I sit on my verandah
And I gaze out over my fence
And I remember on that balcony
We made a love that time laments
I still remember some streets and suburbs
But I lost all my keys and phones
It's hard to keep track when you've left
Little bits of your heart in all those homes

But a house is not a home

So now I rock myself to sleep
With thoughts of where I'd like to die
Maybe in a home that bears resemblance
To all the windows of my eye
We hid our love in a room of shadows
In daydreams I visit every day
Come up to my balcony, look through my window
I'm there at home and where I'll stay

Formed in 2008 as a sidekick to drunken pirate convict maniacs Clinkerfield, they released their debut album "Misery Loves Company" in 2011. They're currently on hiatus, as Clinkerfield return to stages after 6 years in absentia. ... more
