Come Home Lyrics - Change - Dismemberment Plan

Called in sick to work today 

I couldn't have gotten the damn thing done anyhow 

I made myself some coffee and 

I listened to the rain rattle the leaves, yeah 

I told myself there's nothing wrong 

And stared right through the paper for a long, long time 

Stuck inside my dream so long 

It wears you down, it grows you old but that's a fact 

Cold light comes to clear the fog 

Away from time to time but it'll be back soon 

I used to think that justice had to 

Rule for happy lives but now I'm not so sure at all 

Come home, why dont you come home? 

I cannot remember why you left 

And Id rather been happy than right this time 

Called my dad to check in and to 

Maybe find some common sense for more or less 

He says common sense is such a scam 

And I'm like, "Dad, what do you mean?" Oh 

He says, "You're either wrong or right 

And life will go on either way, whatever you chose" But I know 

That anger's all right and bitterness no 

Cold uncontrollably sad and unable to let it go 

And it should be as easy as telling a scab from a scar 

Well, I dont know, well, I dont know 

Well, I dont know, well, I dont know 

Well, I dont know, well, I dont know 

I called in sick to work today 

I couldnt have gotten a damn thing done
