Homecoming

Your head is the house I grew up in
I don’t want to see someone home
I’m the pain on the walls
You can cover me in coats
But you’re never at home alone
I know you’ve already won
You’ve made it so hard to move on
Stay where you are
Leave me alone
I swear I did my best to grow these roses from the ash
But the soil it was tainted, the flora couldn’t last
The notches I scratched in your bedpost
The marker on the door frame to mark my growth
And the photo albums planned but never made
I burned the house down it stayed that way
I always find myself driving through the ruins
Smoking my lungs black where our home once stood
Your head is the house I grew up in
