The trains roll by my porch Down here where nothing can live And I've been smokin' too much 'cause I am no exception You knew that already, I think If you want salvation Then you ought to go see a priest 'Cause forgiveness from those that we hurt in this world Never was guaranteed I'm comin' home, it's late again, I'm high as I've ever been You're sittin' up, you're in our bed cryin' for a ghost again No room could be as dark or as empty as ours is 'Cause I'm at home but I'm not here, and I never am, whoa ♪ I wonder how many Friends roll past my house in the night? In boxcars they sleep with hearts stashed in their backpacks They'll make California all right A promise from me Is just a lie I ain't told yet So I'm ready to die, but I'm not willing to watch You watch me die here in our bed I'm lyin' down, I've been noddin' out since I don't know when The lights are on, you're standin' up screamin' at a ghost again Darlin', I'm home, hell I ain't left this house of ours in days But I'm not here, I never am, so I just can't stay, whoa ♪ My darlin', I'm never comin' back from where I'm goin' My darlin', I'm never comin' home My darlin', I'm never comin' back from where I'm goin' My darlin', I'm never comin' home Never comin' home again
