Not My Home
This house has windows it has walls
This house has doors that lock and shadows lurking in the halls
This house has mirrors that don’t tell
All of the dirty lies that turn a house into a living hell
This house is not my home
I may be standing here but I’m a million miles away
Someday my life will be my own
Til then I’m here alone in this house that’s not my home
Why don’t they notice something’s wrong?
Why don’t they ask me if there’s something different going on?
I’m living in a danger zone
This house has secrets that no one should ever have to bear alone
This house is not my home
I may be standing here but I’m a million miles away
Someday my life will be my own
Til then I’m here alone in this house that’s not my home
Someday I’ll walk out my front door
I won’t come back here anymore
I’ll live the life that’s meant for me
This house is not my home
I may be standing here but I’m a million miles away
Someday my life will be my own
Til then I’m here alone in this house that’s not my home
