Domicile Lyrics

The locks have changed

The doors the same

My home away from home

The dog barks

He must not remember my smell

As far as I can tell

I used to live here

The house is clean as ever

As if someone died on that leather couch

We used to sit on and watch cartoons

Do you remember the weather

Warm and humid on the lawn

Singing badly until dawn

As our throats hurt

Do you think I can swing by

Maybe some other time

That's what you always say

I guess from now on I am

just a visitor in my own home

A past life

That cuts so sweet and so deep

In this bed I would sleep, that no longer fits me

Where can I, now rest my head

When familiar has fled

And left longing

Is it only me

That wishes for a better time

that used to be the only time

That we knew

And do you feel free

In this future that you built yourself

With walls that I can't seem to scale

I keep falling

Do you think I can swing by

Maybe some other time

That's what you always say

I guess from now on I am

just a visitor in my own home
