about

I can't believe I wrote a fucking song about a damn TV show.
Stylistically this is just a nice little folk song we threw in, we can't be sad all the time.

I'm a dork.

lyrics

"I've never had a real home and I wanted this to feel like one"

When my home sprouted legs and ran away from me
I was young, much to scared to follow
I no longer have now what I took for granted then
And my friends became my sisters and my brothers

I knew I was always right
I'd find somewhere sometime
Where everything would fit right for me
It just takes some time

When my home sprouted legs and ran away from me
I was young, still susceptible to lovers
Your tricks worked to well, I think you fooled yourself
Into becoming something you thought you could never

Oh, your defenses are too high
I'd love to see you tonight
Just us alone and nobody watching over me
Without our normal lives

Hey my dear
I whisper too your ear
[Let's just run away from here, we'll be so far within a year's time]
[Or left crying in your bedroom for denial of what feels so real]

When my home sprouted legs and ran away from me
It came back, in one form or another
Now I know where I go, I'll have a friend with me
and I love her
I love her
I love her

"I know that this has probably taken me longer than a normal girl, but I just want you to know; You're my home, Chuck. You always have been."
