Home

I used to think I would die young
Surrounded by angels they would tell me I am happy
And pick me up right off the ground
But now they seem to set me down and wait

This lake is warm, it's hard to swim.
If I saw you again, I'd pull you down we sink like ships they never found
Without a light to help us sleep
So darling clutch with a fist to touch your rosary

When any port is home
At least you'll keep from cold, from cold

I used to be a prime example of the things I didn't want
And now they come around to bury me
They come to bury me

And I used to think I would die young
Surrounded by people that I tried to love and they would keep me warm
But now I'm content to be alone
And now I'm sure I'll die old and forgotten

When I'm on my way home, pretend you're fast asleep and alone
And clutch your rosary
I'm on my own, pretend your fast asleep and alone
And clutch your rosary
