[Verse 1]
I spent a year in a daydream
And I was so different before
And I'm different now
I'm tired, and I want to go home
[Verse 2]
Home is a place where you go at the end of the day
No picture frame posted will make it okay
When I'm just a lifetime away
[Chorus]
I thought that I wasn't leaving here…
Phone calls, and postcards that tell about ghosts
I am drifting away from it all
[Verse 3]
I have been endlessly ending…
I'm watching a grainy reflection of lives where I found I belonged
[Verse 4]
They're framed now: a cell conversation, an instagram link
A false declaration in fading black ink that I have been someone
[Chorus 2]
And I thought that we were not ending here
Voicemails, and words that remind me of lips I've been wishing were real still
[Chorus 3]
These days, they often remind me that search doesn't mean I will find in a box from when it was all fine...
[Bridge]
When it was all empty
When it was just endless
When I had my time
Well, i had my time
[Verse 5]
I've learned a lot about telephones
I guess it's better this way… on a short break, I went away
[Spoken Interlude: Phone Operator]
I'm sorry you're having trouble, goodbye
[Verse 6]
Tell me it's true what I'm saying
Or be here, beside me as i go away now
When i am still finding my home
