Kasey Anderson - Home lyrics

You stood 'em up With their backs against the wall You faced every hollow friend you ever had Then you fired and watched 'em fall You turned around And walked straight into the sun Took one last look back, laughed, then struck a match Burned everything you'd done You said you were leaving town And never coming back But you're still hanging around With your anger on your back And staring at your shoes 'Cause everybody knows That you can't come back home People talk So you better memorize Every hard-luck story you've been keeping straight And all your perfect little lies That's how it goes In a town this small Either play your hand a little closer to the vest Or you don't play at all But you knew that Maybe you forgot That where you hang your hat That's where you get caught And talk don't cost a thing 'Til you're standing in the cold And you can't come back home I remember when You were cold and hard and strong Things can change in the turn of someone's key And it hasn't been that long Since you drew the line And you stepped across But your intuition lied And your courage just got lost Everybody's got a fight But you're in this one alone And you can't come back home
