about

You have to go through a lot of messy situations and obstacles in life sometimes to appreciate the good things. Home is not a person, home is not a physical space, and home is not a country. Home is feeling safe, home is feeling supported, and home is feeling loved.

From Turtle Island to Palestine, I hope you feel at home everywhere that you go!

LYRICS

Verse 1:
All I ever learned from love was,
How to give and give,
Until you have nothing left for yourself.

I cried it out hollow-hearted,
I let them use, abuse, and tear me apart,
At all the seams I had left.

Chorus:
But there you go,
Making me feel safe and warm,
In between my toes, you know,
How cold it gets here alone.

But there you go,
Making me feel loved,
And laughing at my jokes,
Oh thanks, for making sure I get home.
And you are home, you are home, you are home, you are home.

Verse 2:
All I ever learned from love was,
How to trust and trust your gut,
It won't ever let you down.

I laughed it off whole-hearted,
I sewed myself back together again,
You helped me heal,
You helped me win.

Chorus:
But there you go,
Making me feel safe and warm,
In between my toes, you know,
How cold it gets here alone.

But there you go,
Making me feel loved,
And laughing at my jokes,
Oh thanks, for making sure I get home.
And you are home, you are home, you are home, you are home.
