Come Home

My first attempt at writing a duet. About the perceived difference of ‘home.’ Is it sanctuary or prison? Solitude or isolation? ~Kat

Tom: guitar, vocals
Kat: vocals, door, lyrics (except for ‘straggle’, that was all Tom)

Straggle home, another weary day
I lift the weight off of my bones
callous words and anger fade away
try not to think about tomorrow

Solitude will have me in her arms
she’s waiting down the hall
always there to keep me safe from harm

Stuck at home another wasted day
I feel the weight upon my soul
I want to pull you close but push you away
maybe I’ll try again tomorrow

Isolation’s playing tricks on me
and the shadows on the wall
turn to faces staring back at me

Come home to you, that’s all I want to do
silence is all I want, all I want to hear

Come home to me, you’re my reality
and I’m starting to disappear

Solitude will have me in her arms
she’s waiting down the hall
always there to keep me safe from harm

Isolation’s playing tricks on me
and the shadows on the wall
turn to faces staring back at me

Come home to you, that’s all I want to do
silence is all I want, all I want to hear

Come home to me, you’re my reality
and I’m starting to disappear…
