You Remind Me Of Home

You remind me of home: the paint cracks when the water leaks

from the rusty pipes that are just beneath my feet

You remind me of home: the heater's warm but fills the room with a

potpourri of dust and gas fumes



You remind me of home: a broken bed with dirty sheets that creaks

when I am shifting in my sleep

You remind me of home: in a suburban town with nothing to do,

patiently waiting for something to happen

But the foundation is crumbling and becoming one with the ground

while you lay there in slumber...

You're wasting your life



You remind me of home: sitting on a thrift store couch, I'm trying to

get this all down
