Homeless

Jake Miller · Us Against Them [2013]

(Hook)

Here I stand in the cold

I tried to knock

'Cause you changed the locks

Now I'm all alone

Where am I supposed to go?

If you are where my home is

I guess that makes me homeless



(Verse)

So what now? I got no idea where I'm goin

I'm lost with no direction like my GPS is broken

I'm walkin round the streets thinkin bout you every night

I'm feelin homeless now

Lookin like the man from I'm Alright

See I just wanna come back home, can't do this on my own

You were the only thing I knew for sure, guess that I was wrong

See I've tried to walk away but I just end up at your doorstep

Waiting for my phone to ring but nope, you haven't called yet

So I'm wandering, aimlessly

Wish that you stayed with me

Thought that we were meant to be

Felt that you were there for me

But I guess not 'cus in case you failed to notice

You used to be my home until you left me homeless



(Hook)

Here I stand in the cold

I tried to knock

'Cause you changed the locks

Now I'm all alone

Where am I supposed to go?

If you are where my home is

I guess that makes me homeless



(Verse)

So what now? It used to be just you and me

But you kicked me out, locked the doors and tossed away the keys

From the outside lookin in,

You would think that I'm just fine, but I'm a

Bigger wreck than the Titanic inside

I'm sleapin on sidewalks, I'm following street signs

I need some help, I'm feelin stranded, losin my damn mind

I'm blindfolded by you, girl you took everything that I own

I keep callin your phone but all I get is the tone

So I'm lookin up at the stars, these street lights they got me

I never planned on living life without you here right beside me

But guess I was wrong, 'cus in case you failed to notice

You used to be my home until you left me homeless



(Hook x2)

Here I stand in the cold

I tried to knock

'Cause you changed the locks

Now I'm all alone

Where am I supposed to go?

If you are where my home is

I guess that makes me homeless
