Lake Murray
There's an old coat in my closet
That I wore everyday of freshman year
I was too self conscious
To find anything else that I could wear
Rode the bus to school, two blocks from
Where my friends got arrested, for possession
Resisting
And littering
The whole world thought I'd given up on you
You gave me a choice, but I didn't choose
A drawer in your dresser or the fire escape
A place to leave or a place to stay
I can be alright if I want to
Breaking my legs to catch up with you
You may call it baggage, but it's cargo
I'm not going back because I know
Home is where the heartaches
Home is where the heartaches
There's an old dam at the lake
Where nobody can afford to live
That I had to cross, to get to your family's apartment
You were homeschooled
So my friends didn't know why I was missing
What your name was
If you existed
Or why I ditched them
The whole world thought I'd given up on you
You gave me a choice, but I didn't choose
A drawer in your dresser or the fire escape
A place to leave or a place to stay
I can be alright if I want to
Breaking my legs to catch up with you
You may call it baggage, but it's cargo
I'm not going back because I know
Home is where the heartaches
Home is where the heartaches
The whole world thought I'd given up on you
You say it was a choice, but I didn't choose
A drawer in your dresser or the fire escape
A place to leave or a place to stay
I can be alright if I want to
Breaking my legs to catch up with you
You may call it baggage, but it's cargo
I'm not going back because I know
That I wore everyday of freshman year
I was too self conscious
To find anything else that I could wear
Rode the bus to school, two blocks from
Where my friends got arrested, for possession
Resisting
And littering
The whole world thought I'd given up on you
You gave me a choice, but I didn't choose
A drawer in your dresser or the fire escape
A place to leave or a place to stay
I can be alright if I want to
Breaking my legs to catch up with you
You may call it baggage, but it's cargo
I'm not going back because I know
Home is where the heartaches
Home is where the heartaches
There's an old dam at the lake
Where nobody can afford to live
That I had to cross, to get to your family's apartment
You were homeschooled
So my friends didn't know why I was missing
What your name was
If you existed
Or why I ditched them
The whole world thought I'd given up on you
You gave me a choice, but I didn't choose
A drawer in your dresser or the fire escape
A place to leave or a place to stay
I can be alright if I want to
Breaking my legs to catch up with you
You may call it baggage, but it's cargo
I'm not going back because I know
Home is where the heartaches
Home is where the heartaches
The whole world thought I'd given up on you
You say it was a choice, but I didn't choose
A drawer in your dresser or the fire escape
A place to leave or a place to stay
I can be alright if I want to
Breaking my legs to catch up with you
You may call it baggage, but it's cargo
I'm not going back because I know
