Lyrics

Since I was thirteen, I knew I had to get out

But when I packed my bags, I cried the whole way down

Left my friends back in my small town

Along with all my dreams of being loved, how?

But there were bigger things in the stones for me

I had to give up a love to go find me

And yeah, it cut, 'cause I did get out

But my heart still wandered to my hometown

I broke down on the phone saying, "I wanna come home, Dad

I wanna come home, get me out"

He said, "No, I promise you don't, just give it a go

You're gonna be gold out there"

And so I started to like it, cut my hair and then dyed it

Kissed a couple of strangers, didn't mind it

Left my love back in that ghost town

And broke a couple of hearts, I came to find out

And my mother called, said, "What the fuck are you doing?

You've gotta be better than, better than this"

So yeah, it stings, 'cause I did get out

But my soul still roams around my hometown

I broke down on the phone saying, "I wanna come home, Mom

I wanna come home, get me out"

She said, "No, you've gotta be bold, if you wanna, you go

But don't get too cold out there"

I broke down on the phone saying, "I wanna come home, Dad

I wanna come home, get me out"

He said, "No, I promise you don't, just give it a go

You're gonna be gold out there"

I promise you don't, just give it a go

You're gonna be gold out there

You're gonna be gold

You're gonna be gold out there

So I hung up the phone with a lump in my throat

Knowing now what I know, I had to bury

And I etched it into stone, carved it into my bones

It isn't my home, just a memory

I hung up the phone with a lump in my throat

Knowing now what I know, I was empty

And I etched it into stone, carved it into my bones

It can still be my home in my memory
