It'S A Home

I hear you stumble through the house
Assume I'm sleeping, well, I'm up now
You're drunk but quiet as you can be

You wake up mom with a fearful tone
You said, "Twenty years, first one to go
Don't they know I have a family?"

Out of money, out of luck
My heart dropped quickly to my gut
Are we gonna be alright?

Still fake asleep, hear every word
Eight years old, first time I heard
My daddy cry

Well, there's a hole inside the wall and stains covering the carpet
This house is too damn small but it's all I wanted don't ya know
There's water on the floor from every time it rains
But I'll say I like the sound so don't explain it, it's a home

I hear the tremble in your voice
You're scared to death 'cause you got three boys
And tomorrow you're gonna lie
And act like nothing here is changed
But I swear I'll see it on your face
The tears that dried

Well, there's a hole inside the wall and stains covering the carpet
This house is too damn small but it's all I wanted don't ya know
There's water on the floor from every time it rains
But I'll say I like the sound so don't explain it's a home

Daddy we'll be okay, we'll figure out a way
We don't need much of anything no fancy things to show
Daddy we'll be alright it hurts to hear you cry
You worked to give us everything and all we need's a home

I hear you stumble through the house
Assume I'm sleeping well I'm up now
You're drunk but quiet as you can be
