All I Ever Wanted (Was a Home)

from HONEST INJUN EP by TJ Felix

/

lyrics

my pillow is a mound of soil
my bed is 5 pounds of leaves
I'm getting sick from blood & oil
there is no getting clean

wut could've been
is wut always was
why don't u let me in
& lemme rub it on my cuts

pills n booze & wicked ways
I can't tell u how to pass the days
they're killing the seasons so we worship the clock
u sit around & act amazed
but I can no longer watch
cause I've got portals to unlock

no one is gonna care
unless u make them
but u feel unknowable
& so u forsake them
life gets so heavy
& u dont want to break them

but eating shit is all you've ever known

just hop up on the hood of this truck
baby I'm no good, but I know u don't give a fuck
no stars in the city
but if there was im sure they'd wish us good luck
there's never been anyone under these satellites quite like us

pills n booze & wicked ways
I can't tell u how to pass the days
they're killing the seasons so we worship the clock
I can no longer count the reasons
why we no longer talk
cause it's about time that I take off

if u want freedom
then u must create it
but dont blame me
for being jaded
chaos arranged me
then u shamed me for being naked

but all I ever wanted was a home

hold my head in ur lap
be the family I've needed all along
our ancestors warned us of this trap
& they weren't wrong
let the earth shatter, it doesn't matter
I'll take u somewhere where we can be unknown
we'll float thru space like a regal tatter
but all I ever wanted was a home
