The Home Lyrics

do you ever listen
for the sounds that your hands make?
did you know that
we could make sounds?

I don't know what the palace knows
but I don't run with sheep
the shepherd can't herd me
my feet ever slow
the age that takes me
I'll slip out to the mountains where nobody knows me

I will make my home here
I will make my home here
I will make my home here

grow a field of plenty
to hold me tight and keep us warm
from the cold that burns me
my feet ever slow
the age that takes me
I'll slip out to the mountains where nobody knows me

I will make my home here
I will make my home here
I will make my home here

do you ever listen
for the sounds that your head makes?
did you know that
we could make sounds?

I don't know what the palace knows
but i don't run with sheep
the shepherd can't herd me
my feet ever slow
the age that takes me
i'll slip out to the mountains where nobody knows me

i will make my home here
i will make my home here
i will make my home here

i will make my home here
i will make my home here
i will make my home here

i know that i was fine before (fine before, fine before)
i know that i was fine before (fine before, fine before)
i know i was fine before, fine before, fine before
know i was fine before, fine before, fine before
know i was fine before, fine before, fine before
know i was fine before, fine before, fine before
know i was fine before, fine before, fine before

I don't know what the palace knows (or those in power) But i don't run with sheep (or follow the masses) (so) the shepherd (palace,power) can't herd me.

my feet ever slow (from pressures of the shepherd) the age (current times) that takes me I'll slip to the mountains where nobody knows me (and I'm free to live peacefully)

I would make my home there...

do you ever listen to the sounds that your hands make? Did you know that you can a sound (in the masses)?

Your def on the same track of thought as me man.

See if you can figure out what Curch Mouth is about.. So far I'm feeling a pretty sarcastic vibe through the whole song.. mental molestation from a priest?

Something about everyone following trends and he was fine before he moved away from Alaska. My guess.

I think it's vaguely about remaining an individual as we grow older and as people start expecting us to contribute to or become a part of society.
