You Remind Me Of Home

By Ben Gibbard



You remind me of home:

the paint cracks when the water leaks

from the rusty pipes that are just beneath my feet

You remind me of home:

the heater's warm but fills the room with a

potpourri of dust and gas fumes



You remind me of home:

a broken bed with dirty sheets that creaks

when I am shifting in my sleep

You remind me of home:

in a suburban town with nothing to do,

patiently waiting for something to happen



But the foundation is crumbling

and becoming one with the ground

while you lay there in slumber

You're wasting your life,

Wasting Your Life

You're wasting your life,

Wasting Your Life

You're wasting your life,

Wasting Your Life

You're wasting your life,

Wasting Your Life

Wasting Your Life

Wasting Your Life



You remind me of home:

sitting on a thrift store couch

I'm trying to get this all down
