House up in Clearlake

Keep my ears open for cars

See how the people here live now

Hope that they're better at it than I was

Pictures up on the mantle

Nobody I know

I stand by the tiny furnace

Where the long shadows grow

Living room to bedroom to kitchen

Hours spent starving within these walls

Sounds of a distant storm

Fight through the ghosts in the hallway

Duck and weave

Stand by the door with my eyes closed

When it's time to leave

Steal home before sunset
C G
Cover up my tracks

Drive home with old dreams at play in my mind

Break the lock on my own garden gate

When I get home after dark
C G
Sit looking up at the stars outside
F G
Like teeth in the mouth of a shark

I used to live here
