Leaving Home by ALON Lyrics

Verse
I was born in this house
I was raised in this home
Momma tucked me in
When I was scared alone

I'm attached to this place
I'm defined by this space
I learned rules and morals
In between these walls where I grew up

I will bask in the times
Where we laughed and cried
We froze, then ran in fear
We broke the chandelier

We're terrified
Of our last goodbyes
How these faces change
In this change of times
Pre-chorus
But One by one my brothers packed their things and left as they outgrew
But memories live inside these photographs and fragile vacant rooms
These hollow walls, this neighbourhood, how things changed when we grew old
We'll tell our kids the good ol' days we spent at home upon that road

Chorus
But it's time to go
I've got to leave
Its not fair to you
It's not fair to me
It's time to leave home

Verse
Every brick and stone
Every broken bone
This is love was home-made
Picked, and hand-sewn

The Days and Nights
Were sacrificed
Just to make this place
Oh, this loving home

Pre-chorus
But One by one my brothers packed their things and left as they outgrew
But memories live inside these photographs and fragile vacant rooms
These hollow walls, this neighbourhood, how things changed when we grew old
We'll tell our kids the good ol' days we spent at home upon that road
Chorus
But it's time to go
I've got to leave
Its not fair to you
It's not fair to me
It's time to leave

Bridge
But it's not the house that made me
Or the things inside
It's the love my family gave me
That came alive
No matter how you paint these walls or change the tiles
The place where I grew up lives in my heart forever

Chorus
But it's time to go
I've got to leave
Its not fair to you
It's not fair to me
It's time to leave home
