lyrics

I came from shattered windshields and broken doors
And torn up throats from screaming too long
With nowhere else to hide except for under my covers
Where I saw no light
I grew up seven years without feeling safe enough
Just to leave my room
But you taught me comfort and showed me grace,
And now I leave my door wide open for you

You’re the only one that’s made anywhere feel like a home
You’re the only one that’s made me believe I don’t have to cry alone
So anyways, thanks for giving me all I missed out on

I’ve always loved the city, but I wouldn’t mind
Going off the grid if you’re by my side
‘Cause it’s the little things that make this place a home
Like getting all dressed up, or checking the doors
And oh, this is all so new and exciting,
Feeling love and comfort for the very first time
And I never owed you any explanation
‘Cause I know you’ve known me in every iteration

You’re the only one that’s made anywhere feel like a home
You’re the only one that’s given me a reason like I could never know
So anyways, thanks for being someone to rely on
