Home

You can ask me how I fall
but I'll be the last to let you know
Cause you can only ever understand
when you're down here in the sand

There's no use for good feet
when you have nowhere to go
leave those boots behind
for someone with a place to call home

So lay down on your back
Look closely,
isn't life much brighter
when you can't see your shadow behind

Isn't it funny
just how hard it can be
to throw away something unwanted
Do you see the joke in it all?

Unbuckle those heavy boots
laced with tears of the past
throw down those glasses
scratched by the sands of time

I'll never know if I'm wrong
even more so when it's been this long
but then again, how could I ever know?
when this face is only just for show
