hometown


I don't think about my hometown
it stays in the past
where my dreams didn't last
it's a good hometown but
it tears me apart
keeps breaking my heart
it reminds me of what I once had
it makes me sad
to leave it alone
younger days are now long gone
I carry on
not thinking about home
but chances are I might
I'm thinking about my hometown tonight

I don't blame my hometown
it treated me right
when I captured its sight
but I can't go back to my hometown
although I left it behind
before I knew about time
flat land, salt and sea
they reached out to me
but I refused to listen
every now and then
I don't have to pretend
I know what I'm missing
but still I stay quiet
I'm thinking about my hometown tonight
