Home from Dummy Ballads by Novocain

When you came into my life
I never knew you’d be alone
Now you want to get away
Now you’re looking for your home
Oh, I gave you the world
'Cause I couldn’t make it turn
I thought I knew my little girl
But I still have things to learn

When you hold me by the fingertips at ten weeks old
When the story has already been told
That’s alright, that’s alright
When I told you life was meant to be in your control
And you’d never see me dead in the cold
That’s a lie, that’s a lie

Oh I’ve known it all my life
Was hoping someday it would end
Oh, I know what it’s like
You don’t have to pretend
It just hurts seeing you like this
You know you’re strong and you are brave
You say you want to run away
I know that’s there’s no such place as home
So,

When you hold me by the fingertips at ten weeks old
when the story has already been told
That’s alright, that’s alright
When I told you life was meant to be in your control
And you’d never see me dying alone
That’s a lie, that’s a lie

I know that I’m not the victim
I’ll keep it with me on the kitchen floor
I don’t wanna be the victim
Maybe it would help if you came home

When you hold me by the fingertips at ten weeks old
When the story has already been told
That’s alright, that’s alright
When I told you life was meant to be in your control
And you’d never see me dying alone
That’s a lie, that’s a lie

When you hold me by the fingertips at ten weeks old
When the story has already been told
That’s alright
I know that’s there’s no such place as home

When I told you life was meant to be in your control
And you’d never see me dying alone
That’s a lie
I know that’s there’s no such place as home
