No Place Like Home
Mesh
We Collide (2006)

I’m walking a line
But I just want to say that you’ve been on my mind
We don’t talk all the time
Still, I don’t need to hear that it’s all been a lie

I hope relief’s delayed
I wish I knew why she stayed
He made you so afraid
I just know that nothing can burn you out

When you say goodnight
But you don’t want to sleep
Because the anger’s too deep
If you say it right
Say “There’s no place like home”
And you’ll be back there alone in your room

You’re too young to go
I’m too old to hear all the things that you know
You’re too young to see
But you’re too old and wise for the father in me

I know you feel betrayed
I wish I knew the reasons why she stayed
He made you so afraid
I just know that nothing can hurt you know

When you say goodnight
But you don’t want to sleep
Because the anger’s too deep
If you say it right
Say “There’s no place like home”
And you’ll be back there alone in your room

I wish I could be brave enough to
Get into the mind of those who
Are capable of doing that to
Someone who will always love you

You escape into a world of blackness
To try and justify the hint of madness
To try and justify the hint of madness
To try and justify a world of blackness

Do you start up when the kids awake?
Or do you lie and give them all a break
Are you there because she asked you once to?
You’ll be there because the money came through

It’s all going to change one day
It’s all going to change one day

From the moment that I heard you calling
To the second that I heard this morning
From the moment when she passed away
The only chance you had was far away and,

We’ll be there for you to throw the life-line
We’ll be there for you to see the sunshine
Grow up slowly for your brother’s sake
Your sister needs you ‘cause it’s all too much to take

It’s all going to change one day
There’s no place like home
