Five Good Reasons

Welcome to the house that lives
Inside of me
We've got more dust
Inside these rooms
Than room to breathe
Patience left before
I had patience to leave
And pictures tell
A thousand lies of memories
I've got five good reasons
Why i never sleep at home
And i've got four more people
Telling me that i am wrong
And i've got three more wishes
God i wish that i was gone
I've got two more fears left
And i fear that i am one
Father time it seems
He's dying inside of here
All of the love
Has been overthrown by fear
You know i try to keep
Myself as open as i can
But you seem to slam me out
Whenever i let you in
I always thought that age
Would bring some clarity
But every day
Is surrounded by self pity
And i don't understand
How someone as close to you as me
Could be the pit of all your hate
And all your greed
