Lying awake, did it again for Christ´s sake
Shoulda told her to go, and I know it
But she tasted like home
Yeah, she tasted like home
I did what I did, can´t say "hey man, I´m just a kid."

Saw the lie in my eyes, couldn´t hide it
Cause she tasted like home
Yeah, she tasted like home

Oh
Well, home ain´t what I´d call it
When I´m the only ghost walkin´ through the hallways
The pain gets so much clearer
When the one to blame is standing in the mirror
This fool, this liar
Lit a match and set his life on fire
I guess I´d rather be alone, in a house that´s not a home

The pain in my heart´s ´cause we´re a thousand miles apart
I´ve got no one to blame for the shame

´Cause she´s waiting back home
I hope she´s waiting back home
Stupid to think that I could blame it on the drink
Now I´m trying to stall, making calls to someone back home
I hope there´s someone back home

Oh
Well, home ain´t what I´d call it
When I´m the only ghost walkin´ through the hallways
The pain gets so much clearer
When the one to blame is standing in the mirror
This fool, this liar
Lit a match and set his life on fire
I guess I´d rather be alone, in a house that´s not a home

I walk through the door and there´s no light on anymore
Must have known all along I was wrong
Cause there´s no one at home
No one´s waiting back home

Well, home ain´t what I´d call it
When I´m the only ghost walkin´ through the hallways
The pain gets so much clearer
When the one to blame is standing in the mirror
This fool, this liar
Lit a match and set his life on fire
I guess I´d rather be alone, in a house that´s not a home
