"Homesick" is a melodic journal entry. I moved away from home at the age of 22 and quickly realized that my life was going to change in a big way. Nostalgia, freedom and the deep, gut wrenching feeling of homesickness became my everyday trilogy. "Homesick" is a result of the decisions I've made for my life and learning how to deal with the growing pains that come with that.

I can’t be

Gentle with myself

I can’t breathe

Think I might need help

 

How long will it take

To find some inner peace

Think I’m about to break

If I don’t get some sleep

 

How’d I get so lost

I used to know this place

Must’ve missed a turn

Everything’s so strange

 

Magnolia trees

Used to be outside

Now all I see

Are concrete colored skies

 

Put me on a train

Far away from here

I just need a break

To wring out all these tears

 

How’d I get so lost

I used to know this place

Must’ve missed a turn

Everything’s so strange

 

Don’t know where I went

Lost the silver thread

Just take off my head

So I never think again [x3]

 

How’d I get so lost

I used to know this place

Must have missed a turn

Saw a girl crying on the dock in the rain

I should’ve walked over to ask “You okay?”

But I chose not to, couldn’t miss my train

Why did I do that?

Ooooo

Fell in love with a boy who said he loved me back

We would’ve gotten married, we had so many plans

But he fell out of love and I stayed till my heart cracked

Why would I do that?

Oooooo

Left my hometown for college, excited at the start

I was ecstatic to express my art

But I’m homesick, always blue, and trying to play the part

What am I doing?

Ooooo

My butterflies

Have all flown away

To the neon sky

Into the rays

Now I’m left alone

With a heart made of clay

And a face of stone

No flutters left astray

 

I want it back

My silver line

Slipped through my fingers

Down through the vines

Across the years

That passed me by

I want it back

Another time

My silver line

 

My stomach rots

With nothing to chew

No wings just knots

And thoughts of you

With glassy eyes

And vacant words

Now I despise

All of this hurt

 

So give it back

My silver line

Slipped through my fingers

Down through the vines

Across the years

That passed me by

Stuck far away

Another time

My silver line
