[Verse 1]
So I'm sipping my cup
Sick of thinking straight
'Cause I'm a sittin' duck in a pit of snakes
I'm in the twilight zone, and there ain't no slipping away
[Pre-Chorus]
Say I won't do it again
And then I do it again
Hopin' for a different outcome
Hopin' there's more to this
[Chorus]
And now I feel like Coraline
Everywhere I go
Nothin' feels like home
Oh, I feel like Coraline
Everywhere I go
Nothin' feels like home
[Verse 2]

[Pre-Chorus]
Say I won't do it again (No, I won't do it again)
And then I do it again (And again, and again)
Hopin' for a different outcome
Hopin' there's more to this

Everywhere I go
Nothing feels like home
Oh, I feel like Coraline
Everywhere I go
Nothing feels like home
[Bridge]
Nothing feels like home
Nothing feels like
Nothing feels like home
Oh, I feel like
Nothing feels like home
Nothing feels like
Nothing feels like home
Oh, I feel like
[Chorus]
Coraline
Everywhere I go
Nothing feels like home
Oh, I feel like Coraline
Everywhere I go
Nothing feels like home
[Outro]
Nothing feels like home
Nothing feels like
Nothing feels like home
Oh, I feel like

‘Coraline’ is the beginning of the story for my debut album. It’s representative of what my entire first year living in LA was like: very lonely, very cyclical.
