The Problems Are Somewhere Else

Welcome back home
It feels great to be breathing this air again
I don't know how long you've been away
Feels like enough for it all to have changed
The house right across the street
Is finally through with construction work
And two doors down, they're building a wall
So the noise is still the same

Get some much needed reprieve
From the hell you've been going through
I know how much you have longed
For a place that's your own
Like the bathroom downstairs
Where you cut your own hair for the first time
That winter you spent alone
After return attempt no. 1

Remember how it felt back then
Often overcome with anxiety
You drove everyone away
And proudly, not once did you feel lonely
Lately you've been trying
To untangle yourself from this mess you became
And see how you've changed
Now you feel lonely as well

Rest where the folks are all nice
But some people own roosters
Well, you know, part of that is a lie
And part wakes me up everyday
Rest on the fact
Come what may come, you may always come back
There is a place where you'll know
The problems are somewhere else
