Homesick

Inside, it's so peculiar
Everything feels so frozen and overgrown
I've seen ten thousand faces
But they'll never be the ones I've always known
And nothing feels the same when you're alone
No one knows how bad you've got it
Far away and long forgotten
No one knows that the roads seem cold wherever I go
I know that I'm old and alone until the day I come back home
Outside my breath is smoke
As everyone waves goodbye to me on their way home
I smile like a best friend might
But I'll never be the one they think they know
And nothing feels the same when you're alone
Wide of the mark. It makes me sad
But grief like this is healthy
When you've had the dreams I've had
No one knows how bad you've got it
Far away, but not forgotten
And the roads seem cold wherever I go
I know that the roads aren't cold back home
I know they're gold
I'm someone different now
