Vacant Home

Lyrics

[Verse 1] This home has never felt so unfamiliar Now that you've gone away These ghosts echo in the empty space All alone, what was once a greater picture Is now a vacant frame just left to wither and wane Feeling strained, crawling on my knees against This endless grain and dragging feet at the expense Of progress in any way [Pre-Chorus] And it's funny how the tables have turned And the advice that you gave me is now mine to give to you A mother's love in four simple words Forever keeping me, can now keep you too And even after your departure I swear, I can hear you say, "Be good, be safe" [Chorus] This vulnerability has left me struggling Constantly moving at a pace I can't keep This house is not a home, an emptiness I can't ignore This house is not a home, I don't belong here anymore This house is not a home, an emptiness I can't ignore (This vulnerability has left me struggling) This house is not a home, I don't belong here anymore (Constantly moving at a pace I can't keep) [Bridge] Well maybe they call it starting a new chapter But I can never seem to finish the last one in time Now the book keeps moving forward And I am always stuck one page behind But these words that you always told me still resonate inside this space I'm trying to be good, I'm trying to be safe [Chorus] This vulnerability has left me struggling Constantly moving at a pace I can't keep This house is not a home, an emptiness I can't ignore This house is not a home, I don't belong here anymore This house is not a home, an emptiness I can't ignore (This vulnerability has left me struggling) This house is not a home, I don't belong here anymore (Constantly moving at a pace I can't keep) [Outro] This vulnerability has left me struggling This vulnerability has left me struggling Vulnerability, vulnerability, vulnerability
