Lyrics

i need an alibi for where i've been
i knew better than to call you but i did
now i'm contemplating each dividing line between mistake
and "i knew better but i did"

it isn't like i don't know how this ends
i'll write another song, you'll write me off again
and somewhere down the line, i'll try to fall in love only to find
that i can't do it, without you, it never seems to fit

(CHORUS)
'CAUSE OH, YOU ARE HOME
AND NO MATTER WHERE I GO, YOU'RE IN MY BONES
AND NO MATTER WHERE I SLEEP
I NEVER REST OUTSIDE THE PLACE I KEEP MY SOUL

i'd ask you not to ever call again
i'd do my best to focus on your worst offense
i'd show you every ugly thing i hide behind my criminal's defense

i'd fall asleep in houses i don't know
i'd sit in silence when your song comes on the radio
but doing everything that i've already done just doesn't make much sense.
