This Home

This is a song

(chorus)my good intension's have led me to sadness
and i cry
i try to smile but this feeling
it holds me down inside

it's this loneliness
it's my house
but it isn't home
now that you're not around

this house has some secrets
each revealed with time
we all keep our secrets
our own state of mind

and i hear crying
a wail from somewhere
cause you just aren't here
anymore

and your sweet song is gone
i don't hear it anymore
i don't listen for the laughter
that was here before

like a bird in a cage
or sun set behind a cloud
i must move on before
i move out...
