about
No Matter What, Home is Home.
lyrics
Raindrops on the windshield
You came right out of left field
It's dark in the backseat, I might as well sleep
I drift off to the sound of snide blasting ween
You don't know, why I act the way I do
And I don't think that matters much, it's got nothing to do with you
But I think I've been shaped by my own mistakes
If there's one thing I'm sure of, it's that I'm allowed to cry
I'm just a kid from a town south of Boston
My town is a home to alcohol and heroin
But I'll never talk a sip or stick a needle in my arm
I don't have much to say and I think I've said it all
And I've got enough to problems as it is
I don't need another thing to add to the list
Of setbacks, disappointments, cancer or dope
That's why I keep running and hold onto hope
And I'm not sure what I mean
But damn Rockland is my home despite the novelty
I'll never give up on it since I met Brian on the tracks
2013 was the start of all that
I'm just a kid from a town south of Boston
My town is a home to alcohol and heroin
But I'll never talk a sip or stick a needle in my arm
I don't have much to say and I think I've said it all
