Home

Driving away I already miss the red light
I’d climb up the pole and kiss it but it’s out of sight
I tried to get what I deserved
It was something as simple as her
I can’t say I know what home is until I find it
It seems hopeless and it’s about time I made an exit

Let me carry you home
I’m sitting on a lonely throne
Crown of thorns and a staff of ashes
A monarch that’s compared to people in caskets
Let me carry you home
In my dark faded eyes you glow

It doesn’t put a smile on my face
I’ll put it up myself so I can continue the chase
I’d give it all up if you wouldn’t break a promise
I’ll get down on my knees if you’re honest
It’s cold and dark every night
I need your glow to have some sort of sight

Let me carry you home
I’m sitting on a lonely throne
Crown of thorns and a staff of ashes
A monarch that’s compared to people in caskets
Let me carry you home
In my dark faded eyes you glow

I’ve turned the empty down because I think I have a chance
Baby I can’t even dance
I wanna give you all I can give
But it’s impossible so I’ll just wait and sit
Waiting rooms are depressing and I guess I fit
Bad luck everywhere I turn
Through it all I’ll never really learn
I feel like after all this, love is something I earned

Let me carry you home
I’m sitting on a lonely throne
Crown of thorns and a staff of ashes
A monarch that’s compared to people in caskets
Let me carry you home
In my dark faded eyes you glow

Are you close to me or am I close to you?
