How to Return Home |
| Your bare feet sliding on the old wooden floorboards |
| Home, just as you left it, but still you’re shaken |
| Like walking into a museum somehow out of time |
| It’s all the same, except the girl in the hallway |
| Where she’s been and who she will ripen into |
| Your childhood’s on the other side of a sprawling divide |
| Too wide… |
| Take a silent breath |
| Hold in the change |
| Tell yourself you still live here |
| Take your bags upstairs |
| It’s the only way you’ll get through today |
| Count the hours… |
| Take a shower… |
| Wash yourself away… |
| The house is pulsing with an alien heartbeat |
| Was it always here, but you never listened? |
| It’s calling you to be the girl that you were way back then |
| Again… |
| Take a silent breath |
| Hold in the change |
| Tell yourself you still live here |
| Take your bags upstairs |
| Put away your clothes, take it nice and slow |
| Be their daughter |
| Nothing’s harder when nobody knows |
| How to return home |
| How to return home |
| And how to survive |
| There’s no written guidelines |
| How to go back |
| How to show up and unpack |
| How to show up |
| How to grow up |
| How to take a breath |
| Take a silent breath |
| Hold in the change |
| Tell yourself you still live here |
| Take your bags upstairs |
| You still share a name |
| But you’re not the same |
| You don’t fight it |
| You don’t hide it |
| It’s a whole new game of how to return home |
| How to return home |
| How to return home |
| How to return home |
| Your bare feet sliding on the old wooden floorboards |
| Home just as you left it but still you’re shaken |
