House By the Sea - Moddi

They say home is the place where your heart is

Then I am home now, though I am far away

For so long I’ve let the forest guard it

And now it’s begging me to stay

And I’m trying my best to be tough

To pretend I am strong and can siphon it off

But I’m not who I wanted to be

In my heart I belong in a house by the sea

They say home is a place where you’re needed

Then I am home now, but I am leaving

To feel my feet being kissed by the seaweed

And I will be silent and kiss it back

This is not who I want you to see

It’s just adding on weight to the darkness in me

And from the little I have understood

I believe that a house by the sea would do good

They say home is a place you can choose to be

And I’ve decided to carry home inside me

So it’s not really as if I am leaving

It’s more like something pulling me

Because behind everything that I do

I just want to forget, want to carry this through

Fill my lungs with the sweet summer air

In my heart, in my mind I am already there

Yeah behind everything that I do

I just want to come home and lay down beside you

And then I’ll be who I wanted to be

In my heart I belong in a house by the sea
