Home and Somewhere Else... Lyrics
Stolen from the kingdom
Heavy gold and one drum
So your father keeps a loaded gun
And your mother speaks with a golden tongue
A swollen and numb conundrum
Everyone's someone's sun
Your garden keeper's a cheerful drunk
Your fortune sleeps in a sunken trunk
Home
I think I think best at home
Somewhere else on a shelf sits new ideas not yet my own
Somewhere else perfect health with no bad memories just good bones
Home
I even get lost at home
Somewhere else someone helps everyone else except their own self
Somewhere else something melts making new sceneries
Gonna seem like home's hell
Heavy gold and one drum
So your father keeps a loaded gun
And your mother speaks with a golden tongue
Everyone's someone's sun
Your garden keeper's a cheerful drunk
Your fortune sleeps in a sunken trunk
I think I think best at home
Somewhere else on a shelf sits new ideas not yet my own
Somewhere else perfect health with no bad memories just good bones
I even get lost at home
Somewhere else someone helps everyone else except their own self
Somewhere else something melts making new sceneries
Gonna seem like home's hell

This song is so precious. It spoke directly to my heart on the first listen. Whenever I listen to this I imagine wandering through forests and fields in summertime.
Having said that, I have no idea what it means. But somehow, I think figuring it out would ruin the magic :)
But that's what this site is for, isn't it?
But that's what this site is for, isn't it?
I think it's about living in a small town and you can't decide if you love it or you hate it.
