I Felt Homesick
I bought a pack of Lucky Strikes
On the way from your nursing home
I didn't know much about the taste
I just saw it in a TV show
And I was coughing out my lungs
When my mom called
And the line was breaking up
But I already knew the undertone
Cause we spoke
But you didn't say a word
And when I left your stare was blank
It just said it all
So maybe I should stop by like I did on that night
I felt homesick
I threw a pack of Winston Lights
On the way out of your funeral
And my mom could smell it on me
But it's never the right time to ask
Cause I'm "just so angry all the time"
And I said "I'm fine" but I could barely close my eyes
I can't close my eyes
You're still here
I can't close my eyes
I hoped for closure
When we spoke
But you didn't say a word
And when I left your stare was blank
It just said it all
So maybe I should stop by like I did on that night
I felt homesick
On the way from your nursing home
I didn't know much about the taste
I just saw it in a TV show
And I was coughing out my lungs
When my mom called
And the line was breaking up
But I already knew the undertone
Cause we spoke
But you didn't say a word
And when I left your stare was blank
It just said it all
So maybe I should stop by like I did on that night
I felt homesick
I threw a pack of Winston Lights
On the way out of your funeral
And my mom could smell it on me
But it's never the right time to ask
Cause I'm "just so angry all the time"
And I said "I'm fine" but I could barely close my eyes
I can't close my eyes
You're still here
I can't close my eyes
I hoped for closure
When we spoke
But you didn't say a word
And when I left your stare was blank
It just said it all
So maybe I should stop by like I did on that night
I felt homesick
