Alone - Vices

I never wanted a house

You were my home

We had this place built

So you could call it your own

Now these walls haunt me

The ghost of a family

That I took for granted

I made this bed now I’ll sleep in it

(I don’t)

Just a child in the body of a man

I didn’t know how to handle it

All the things I said and did

I still can’t believe it

What the fuck is wrong with me?

Nobody tells you how it will be

Head down, work hard, provide

We’ve all been sold a lie

It will never mean anything

If you’re not there with me

I never wanted a house

You were my home

We had this place built

So you could call it your own

Now these walls haunt me

The ghost of a family

That I took for granted

I made this bed now I’ll sleep in it

You were right to get away from me

I take the blame, I take the blame

Now that everything has changed

I’m still nothing if it wasn’t for guilt and shame

I roamed the earth chasing my dreams

And finally you broke at the seams

I’ll never forgive myself for this

But I’ll always wish you the very best

I never wanted a house

You were my home

We had this place built

So you could call it your own

Now what do I call this mess?

It seems so worthless

The only thing I value

Is my life without you
