She turned on her radio and I turned on my wrecking ball
She had only just punched in and I was in charge of letting her go
When did I become the one they loathe?
Waiting for the train that night breathing in the city’s poisoned air
There she is shoulders slumped crying on her train to who knows where
Watch out man you just might start to care
I’m home I’m home
No picket fence no light left on
I’m home I’m home and alone
I’m home I’m home
Doesn’t matter much where I go
I’m home I’m home and alone
Sitting silent on the train racing towards that skyline hell
Staring as the ties pass fast and the rails cast their soothing spell
How does everyone hear my leper’s bell?
I’m home I’m home
Doesn’t matter much where I go
I’m home I’m home and alone
I’m home I’m home
Just a suitcase for this callous soul
I’m home I’m home and alone…so alone
I’m home I’m home
No picket fence no light left on
I’m home I’m home and alone
I’m home I’m home
Doesn’t matter much where I go
I’m home I’m home and alone…so alone
I’m home I’m home
Doesn’t matter much where I go
I’m home I’m home and alone…so alone
I’m home I’m home
Just a suitcase for this callous soul
I’m home I’m home and alone…so alone
