lyrics

Houses for Homes

I thought I was onto something
but the winds of change, they've hounded for my sake.
I'm disappointed with the way I've lived,
but it's these mistakes that have kept me interested.
Another day, another dollar lost.
Why work at all when your employer robs?

So if you leave it, will you let it go
or find out your house was no home?
I didn't think so.

Now all your friends have turned and walked away
and they laugh like dogs when you wish that they would stay.
When safety's gone and sleep has lost it's place,
your church becomes a hall for catching up.
And love is just a word you throw around
to the next girl you sleep with who puts out.
I used to drive to travel place to place,
but now I drive get the hell away.

So if I leave you, will I ever know
what accomplishments and joy that I've left?
Is it even worth the chance?
to live my life and to sacrifice my only shot
to be something that I'm not
going to find a way to settle down,
cause all those paths are recycled and washed out.
