To Call My Own

Verse one:
blowing through my losing streak
bought the farm on a dead-end street
nothing ever grows under your sun
filling voids with emptiness
driving past your old address
loneliness: two has turned to one
Chorus i:
they welcome you with broken arms
tell you they don’t mean no harm
do they mean anything at all?
Verse two:
Feeling crowded by my company
You can’t hate but parts of me
I know there’s a new myth on your floor
Staying up in 409
The days are yours, the nights are mine
Burned out everything except your door
Chorus ii:
It’s like breaking out of broken homes
They tell you they don’t eat their own
Searching for one thing to call my own
To call my own
Repeat intro
Verse three:
There’s a gold mine in the local scene
Get nine lives, need thirteen
Paid the price, landed on all fours
Chorus iii:
You used to mean the world to me Scared to death of what that means
So it don’t mean nothing at all
I welcomed you with broken arms
You know i don’t mean no harm
Do i mean anything at all?
Repeat intro
Chorus iv:
They all come from broken homes
Tell you they don’t eat their own
Searching for one thing to call my own
