The Comeback Home

[Verse 1: Dylan Owen]
We fell in love on the phone
In the funniest tone
Now it’s a struggle try to trouble you to come back home
I’ve been here for a while look how much of it’s grown
Gotta glorify a story that nobody has told
This is life in real time, in life I’ve realized, that lightning’s gonna strike if you don’t cover your toes
Dignified, victimized, different lives, signifying
They were lying when they told you that nobody’s alone
‘Cause I’m alone in this fort we built
Still holding on to your bones, tell your corpse be still
All the songs I compose with the force we willed
Shows every bridge that we burn, we of course rebuild
Off course, rebuild
Upon that secret hand-holding technique
Write it on the calendar with a plan you hope for next week
I thought that it was perfect when I said those lines
Adding hours to my life out on west coast time
It’s the comeback, the comeback, the comeback home
I’m saying please won't you come back home
Because I’m sick of throwing rocks at your window writing comeback poems
And saying please won't you come back home
Yeah despite all my travels I have come back home
So despite all your travels won’t you come back home

Won’t you come back just come back just come back just come back home
It’s the comeback
The comeback home

[Verse 2: Dylan Owen]
I’ve made a few mistakes but Ill be using them to pave my roads
As if sleeping with a catholic girl could save my soul
As if the weight of all these heavy things could break my bones
I try to shed my old skin and change my clothes
Put up my hood and hold the moment in passing
Me and LuLu from Denver talk music put our Souls into Action
I keep a shiny metal bullet in my pocket that says “DJ Grumble”
We gon’ blow up at any second bro, but we stay humble
And I’m recounting my measure of miles
Dad said to always leave a dear friend with a smile
But as I walk on, my shoes, remind me of me
My soul’s worn down but my tongue still speaks
Check it
Shoutout to Miah from Seattle got a tattoo of my lyrics on her shoulder blades
This one’s a toast to the roads that we’ll always take
And for a stranger to carry my burden on her back is something that time won’t erase
Until our ghosts’ll fade
Just gotta come home just come home just come home someday

It’s the comeback the comeback the comeback home
I’m saying please won’t you come back just come back just come back home

[Verse 3: Dylan Owen]
I take a step into the sun from this black room
My name is Dylan and there’s blood on my tracks too
Cover the path I carved if we’re gonna be gone this late
And put my pen in the middle just to compensate
Get it?
I swear to God that this is not my fate
Lost looking for a commonplace
We said goodbye on the phone
In the loveliest tone
Now it’s a struggle try to juggle this puzzle alone
It isn’t light like the candle kind
And when we think about life we don’t plan to die
But when we think about lights we all plan to shine
Keep in mind, we all gon’ grow up like dandelions
Or Amanda Bynes
This is the comeback, the comeback home
I’m saying please won’t you come back home
Because I’m sick of writing all these fucking songs about you
Come back home
I’m sick of looking at our picture
Won’t you come back home?
I’m sick of thinking bout you all the time
Come back home
I’m sick of sleeping alone
Won’t you come back, just come back home?

It’s the comeback, the comeback home
It’s the comeback, the comeback, the comeback
The come back home

[Outro: Dylan Owen]
And so in the end, we end up right where we started
You gotta keep your friends close ‘cause it’s hard when they’re far away
