Homebound

You tried to call me on my phone But don't you know I'm never home You had a place where you could hide To shield yourself from darkest times

Those words they hit me so fast I couldn't say those things back And now I'm looking for a way out But that's not what I'm all about

Don't panic, hear them out Mind's defaulting to doubt Hoping that this bad news is just a dream No time to say a goodbye even if I could just try Still hoping this bad news ain't what it seems

A second chance, or just a break But now it's too late to take Now you sleep never to wake and I can't take that

You tried to call me on my phone (On my phone) But don't you know I'm never home (Never home) You had a place where you could hide (Where you hide) To shield yourself from darkest times (All those lies)

I wish I answered cause I never knew this day would come And all those times we spent You never showed that you were done

My mind is racing and I keep hoping this is a lie And all these people passing don't know that lives are crashing

A second chance, or just a break But now it's too late to take Now you sleep never to wake and I can't take that

You tried to call me on my phone (On my phone) But don't you know I'm never home (Never home) You had a place where you could hide (Where you hide) To shield yourself from darkest times (All those lies)

I wish I answered but I never knew this day would come And all those times we spent You never showed that you were done

I don't know how you masked it all so we could never tell And built a wall to keep it back and hide your demons well It seems like yesterday when we last talked about our plans Both looking forward to the future, why life shouldn't end

When you are down, don't act on it Life gets better, it's a promise
