Back Home Lyrics by Awkward Marina

Crushed Creations

2016

The walls were painted gray
When I came home last night
Don't think they were that way

Is it nostalgia's sight
Or is it really true
The faces don't look right

This place seems like it's new
But I detect no change
You'd wonder why I do

(Woah, my friends...)
My friends, where'd you go, my friends, don't wanna know (Friends...)

This is not the way I remember it
I wanna go back home
This is not the way I remember it
I wanna go back home
Woah, woah, a place I've never known
Woah, woah, I wanna go back home

How did we rearrange
The way we had such fun
Why do you talk so strange

You could be anyone
'Cause all our memories
Are things we've never done

This is not the way I remember it
I wanna go back home (Wanna go, wanna go)
This is not the way I remember it
I wanna go back home (Wow!)
Woah, woah, a place I've never known
Woah, woah, I wanna go back home

(Ho-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-ome...)
(I wanna go)
(Ho-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-ome...)
(Ho-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-ome...)
(I wanna go)
(Ho-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-ome...)

And only I have changed
And only I have travelled the land
And nothing here has changed
Except for what I thought that I am
'Cause you would never change (This is not the way I remember it)
And not the one you travelled the land (I wanna go wanna go wanna go home)
And nothing here has changed (No,)
And nothing here has changed (No, no!)

This is not the way I remember it (Ay yea-eah!)
I wanna go back home (Wanna go home!)
This is not the way I remember it
I wanna go back home
Woah, woah, a place I've never known (Never known)
Woah, woah, I wanna go back home (Woah)

(I wanna go!)
(I wanna wanna go home!)
(I wanna go!)
(I wanna go home...)
