lyrics

the "i" makes fun of me,
she hates when i reach out for the light
push up my boundaries,
when I can't put up a fight

this heart don't lie,
she tells it right

homebound,
know that you are safe with me
stay around,
home in this body

i know it's been a while,
wondering how you're even doing,
or why you forced a smile –
embarrassed that I don't know

can't place your chores
in hands that aren't yours

homebound,
know that you are safe with me
stay around,
home in this body

home in the body
are we...?
i'll wait till safety shows

home in this body
find ways to take things slow
slow...

the "i" makes fun of me
she hates when i reach out for the light
push up my boundaries,
i can't put up a fight

homebound,
know that you are safe with me
stay around,
home in this body

homebound,
i find room to make my home
give me room,
living room.
