Mitch James Home Is Lonely Lyrics

[Verse 1]
(Yeah) I remember being thirteen havin' my first drink
Throwin' up inside the kitchen sink
It was you and I on the same side
Gettin' high, chasing paradise

[Verse 2]
Now suddenly we're eighteen
Doin' the same thing, drinkin' the same drinks
When I look around, no one else
Is even dyin' to get out
[Pre-Chorus]
I held my breathe
Took a plane out West
I left to be happy
And now you hold it against me

[Chorus]
Tell me how could home be
A place that makes me lonely?
And everyone that knows me
Doesn't know me at all?
I didn't think that changin'
Would turn my friends to strangers
Is this life worth the chase if
There's nobody to call?

[Verse 3]
(Yeah) I know we wasn't raised that way
There's some things you just don't say
But you're supposed to be my best mates
Now I'm alone when I celebrate
We wanted to be astronauts and movie stars Millionaires with fancy cars
I didn't think to tear us all apart

[Chorus]
Tell me how could home be
A place that makes me lonely?
And everyone that knows me
Doesn't know me at all?
I didn't think that changin'
Would turn my friends to strangers
Is this life worth the chase if
There's nobody to call?
[Bridge]
It f*ckin' kills me to say it
I had to lose you to change me
I feel so lost and I hate it
I had to lose you to change me

[Chorus]
And tell me how could home be
A place that makes me lonely?
And everyone that knows me
Doesn't know me at all?
I didn't think that changin'
Would turn my friends to strangers
Is this life worth the chase if
There's nobody to call? (Yeah)

[Bridge]
It f*ckin' kills me to say it
I had to lose you to change me
I feel so lost and I hate it
I had to lose you to change me
