This song is super old that I wrote back in high school. It's been my ultimate singalong hit and I felt that, once again, it needs to come back but in a more mellowed out form. It's about being young and falling in and out of love with friends and how destructive some coping mechanisms can be. It somehow continues to apply to my life today and I guess that's why I just can't stop bringing it up.

This song is super old that I wrote back in high school. It's been my ultimate singalong hit and I felt that, once again, it needs to come back but in a more mellowed out form. It's about being young and falling in and out of love with friends and how destructive some coping mechanisms can be. It somehow continues to apply to my life today and I guess that's why I just can't stop bringing it up.
I've waited for this day to come true and the demons that I've battled for days
Are nowhere to be found so I hope you come around because I'd like to see your face
I've been drinking since you left yesterday, never wondered where you've gone
You took my soul, split it in two, and now I've just got the blues but I'm starting to like the change
Because when I think of home you know I'm thinking of you
and when I pour a drink you know I'm really pouring two
and if I go to hell then I would be so blue
Unless it meant that I'd get to spend the rest of my life with you
The times are bringing me down and this place, well it will never be the same
All the fun we had, the good and bad, forever make me sad and glad and I know that it's all part of the game
If I were to die right now, my money all went to the drinks.
I've been digging this hole and when I grow old then I'll finally stop being such a jerk, or not
Because when I think of home you know I'm thinking of you
and when I pour a drink you know I'm really pouring two
and if I go to hell, man, I would be so blue
Unless it meant that I'd get to spend the rest of my life with you
Because when I think of home you know I'm thinking of you
and when I pour a drink you know I'm still pouring two
and if I go to hell then I would be so blue
Unless it meant that I'd get to spend the rest of my life with you
