homesick
music + lyrics by miranda zickler
Get your clothes on
Or dress in your excuses
I’ve heard that money
Works just as well as youth does
I’m either homesick
Or sick of being at home
I’m either lonely
Or dying to be alone
All the love hounds
Are tearing at your sutures
I’ve been a real drag
And living in the future
I’m either homesick
Or sick of being at home
I’m either lonely
Or dying to be alone
Wake up, sand in your lungs
Ocean speaking in tongues
Tell me what I did wrong
Jump back or you get stung
Did you like me better high strung
Knees out, eating the sun
Counting battles you’ve won
Darling, take them and run
Wake up, sand in your lungs
And I don’t know what to say
Did you like me better high strung,
Knees out,
Oh, honey I don’t know what to say
I’m either homesick
Or sick of being at home
I’m either lonely
Or dying to be alone
