Straightaway - No Place To Call Home lyrics

It's hard to take a look back and wonder what my life would be like
I’ve passed the years and I shed all these tears
I've been writing all these songs to keep my heart away
from all these fears but it’s not working out

I’m walking down these streets of innocence again
Taking a trip down memory lane

I’m carrying this sorrow like the heaviest lifechanging sin
Living all these scenes again when life was just a harmless game
Such a final outcome wasn’t meant to be our plan
And I miss those familiar places

A pic of you and me together when we were younger
Standing on its own lost in the back of a drawer
It’s good to see again these old childish laughters
It’s been too long since I haven’t seen life in colors

I’m carrying this sorrow like the heaviest lifechanging sin
Living all these scenes again when life was just a harmless game
Such a final outcome wasn’t meant to be our plan
And I miss those familiar places

The same old recollections on my mind
The same old feeling that this will never end
Can we go back in time change the screenplay
Make it a fiction where reality’s a different game
No matter how many words I write
They never seem to take this pain away

There hasn’t even been a single place since you’ve been gone
that’s ever made me feel like home
This radiant smile on your face has never made me feel so lonely
I’m holding this scar for a lifetime

Touching this hope for a second
Feeling it real for a moment
I can feel you somewhere near
Just pretending you’re right here
