When There Is No Home

from I should have been overproduced by Alicia Edelweiss

/

lyrics

When I come home from a bad night out
it makes me philosophical, thinking about
that one and one make none and all my friends have gone
and I wish I'd never seen the sun,
oh I wish I'd never seen the sun

Strangers come and go, some stop to say hello
once a week you might have a cup of tea
and they always turn out different
from what you thought them to be
but does it matter in the end
that you made one more friend
to spend some time
for the sake of some memories
for the sake of wasted memories

But, where do you go
when there is no home?
where do you go
when there is no home

People wanting bread and games
others enlightment, is it the same?
oh, is it really brave to live this life
or just stupid not to turn to suicide?
oh, I'd have to drop that knife
if I found there was eternal life
oh I'd be so disappointed
to cancel my last appointment
to cancel my last appointment

But, where do you go
when there is no home?
Tell me, where do you go
when there is no home

After all you change the place
in case someone starts to read your face
which coast it doesn't matter
someone just show me something better
I can't stand the harem of people no more
I keep to let me forget what I don't know
I keep to let me forget what I don't know

But, where do you go
when there is no home?
Tell me, where do you go
when there is no home

I know it's all just there for me
the turn-off-button is hidden in the sea
and it'll take me more than a thousand years
to dive to the bottom of my fears
but in the end you're on your own
and it seems like you still haven't grown
no one you love can really fill your soul
no one you love can really fill your soul

But, where do you go
when there is no home?
Tell me, where do you go
when there is no home?

Tell me, where should I go when there is no home?
Tell me where should I go when there's no place to belong?
Tell me where do you go when there is no home?
Tell me where should I go when there is no home
