Dylan Owen - The Comeback Home lyrics

[Verse 1: Dylan Owen] We fell in love on the phone In the funniest tone Now it's a struggle try to trouble you to come back home I've been here for a while look how much of it's grown Gotta glorify a story that nobody has told This is life in real time, in life I've realized, that lightning's gonna strike if you don't cover your toes Dignified, victimized, different lives, signifying They were lying when they told you that nobody's alone ‘Cause I'm alone in this fort we built Still holding on to your bones, tell your corpse be still All the songs I compose with the force we willed Shows every bridge that we burn, we of course rebuild Off course, rebuild Upon that secret hand-holding technique Write it on the calendar with a plan you hope for next week I thought that it was perfect when I said those lines Adding hours to my life out on west coast time It's the comeback, the comeback, the comeback home I'm saying please won't you come back home Because I'm sick of throwing rocks at your window writing comeback poems And saying please won't you come back home Yeah despite all my travels I have come back home So despite all your travels won't you come back home Won't you come back just come back just come back just come back home It's the comeback The comeback home [Verse 2: Dylan Owen] I've made a few mistakes but Ill be using them to pave my roads As if sleeping with a catholic girl could save my soul As if the weight of all these heavy things could break my bones I try to shed my old skin and change my clothes Put up my hood and hold the moment in pa**ing Me and LuLu from Denver talk music put our Souls into Action I keep a shiny metal bullet in my pocket that says “DJ Grumble” We gon' blow up at any second bro, but we stay humble And I'm recounting my measure of miles Dad said to always leave a dear friend with a smile But as I walk on, my shoes, remind me of me My soul's worn down but my tongue still speaks Check it Shoutout to Miah from Seattle got a tattoo of my lyrics on her shoulder blades This one's a toast to the roads that we'll always take And for a stranger to carry my burden on her back is something that time won't erase Until our ghosts'll fade Just gotta come home just come home just come home someday It's the comeback the comeback the comeback home I'm saying please won't you come back just come back just come back home [Verse 3: Dylan Owen] I take a step into the sun from this black room My name is Dylan and there's blood on my tracks too Cover the path I carved if we're gonna be gone this late And put my pen in the middle just to compensate Get it? I swear to God that this is not my fate Lost looking for a commonplace We said goodbye on the phone In the loveliest tone Now it's a struggle try to juggle this puzzle alone It isn't light like the candle kind And when we think about life we don't plan to die But when we think about lights we all plan to shine Keep in mind, we all gon' grow up like dandelions Or Amanda Bynes This is the comeback, the comeback home I'm saying please won't you come back home Because I'm sick of writing all these f**ing songs about you Come back home I'm sick of looking at our picture Won't you come back home? I'm sick of thinking bout you all the time Come back home I'm sick of sleeping alone Won't you come back, just come back home? It's the comeback, the comeback home It's the comeback, the comeback, the comeback The come back home [Outro: Dylan Owen] And so in the end, we end up right where we started You gotta keep your friends close ‘cause it's hard when they're far away
