[Verse 1]
When everyone has gone to bed, I find myself all in my head
I'm walkin' down this lonely road
'Cause I ain't got no place to go
I want to find this peace of mind that people speak of
Yes, I tried, but I'm walkin' down this lonely road
'Cause I ain't got no place to go
[Pre-Chorus]
Go in there, I go and I don't know where I will be tomorrow
Through the night, we choose to fight
But all I know is
[Chorus]
I'm not going home
Oh-oh, oh-oh, home
Oh, oh
I'm not going home
Oh-oh, oh-oh, home, home
And I'm not going home
I'm not going home, oh
Ooh, ooh
[Verse 2]
Some people stop, some pass me by
It's pourin' rain, but I'm alive
And where I'm headed, I don't know
'Cause I ain't got no place to go
I'm seekin' something I can't find
I had before but I left behind
And I'd rather walk this lonely road
Than turn around and go back home
[Pre-Chorus]
Go in there, I go and I don't know where I will be tomorrow
Through the night, we choose to fight
But all I know is
[Chorus]
I'm not going home
Oh-oh, oh-oh, home
Oh, oh
I'm not going home
Oh-oh, oh-oh, home, home
And I'm not going home
I'm not going home
[Bridge]
Everybody needs a, everybody needs a
Changing of the tides, changing of the tides
Everybody sees the, everybody sees the
Breaking, a breaking, ooh
Everybody needs a, everybody needs a
Changing of the tides, changing of the tides
Everybody sees the, everybody sees the
Breaking, a breaking, ooh
[Chorus]
I'm not going home
Oh-oh, oh-oh, home
Oh, oh
And I'm not going home
Oh-oh, oh-oh, home
I'm not going home
I'm not going home
Ooh, ooh
Not Going Home was written by Tones and I.
Not Going Home was produced by Tones and I & Dann Hume.
Tones and I released Not Going Home on Fri Jul 16 2021.
It’s pretty much the first song I wrote when I got to Byron Bay in my van—before I wrote “Dance Monkey”. I didn’t really have a place to live, I couldn’t even go back to Melbourne, I didn’t have a home. So I wrote it about how I have nowhere to go, I’ve decided on this life that I’ve wanted for ages...
