You can't wait to go home.

You can't wait to go home to your TV and your ipad and your closet full of designer clothing.

You can't wait to go home to your crazy Mom

And your weird brother

You can't wait to go home

To alone

And I
Know
you
are
home

Even though you think you belong in Tulsa

Your
home
is
right
here
and
I
am
your
family
