What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I'm not happy with myself these days
2
I took the best parts of the script and I made them all cliche
3
And this red bandanna is surely going to fade
4
Even though it's the only thing the fire didn't take
5
Everybody says you'll grow a lot from this experience
6
Maybe become Zen, after a while become a president
7
Blessings get disguised sometimes but all I know
8
Is I finally know the difference
9
Between going back and going home
10
There's a lady on my block that has a kid
11
As he swims in the above ground pool, she seals up the lid
12
And he thinks it's kind of normal that she hides
13
Up the cuts and all the bruises, she says it's warpaint for the eyes
14
She tells her son she did the best she could as she buries dad
15
Maybe he'll grow up to be a man unlike his father did
16
As I leave the driveway for the northern snow
17
They'll finally know the difference
18
Between going back and going home, yeah
19
Cut to a life being born in sixty nine
20
Middle class suburbs, every thing's fine
21
Fondue parties, my mom and my dads
22
Drinks being drunk and fights being had
23
I lost my virginity to a girl in my band
24
She was four years older, she made me a man
25
So addicted to sex every chance that I got
26
With whoever I wanted until I got caught
27
So I took my penicillin and I took my band
28
To a town made of glitter girls and cocaine friends
29
Got handed the dream by the age of eighteen
30
Saw more than most people that I know had ever seen
31
Played every bar, drank till black and blue
32
Did the morning show bullshit and went to China too
33
Where they left us to die without a ticket to flee
34
Inciting a riot, we were only twenty three
35
Packed it up, started over just as fast as we can
36
Selling tapes, making merch in the back of a van
37
Living hand to mouth for the next five years
38
Took up drinking wine, gave up drinking beer
39
Signed another big deal with A Devil In A Dress
40
A one hit wonder I think described it best
41
Decided to burn out than to fade away
42
Went back to the van the very next day
43
Built it up, made a living without any help
44
Made amazing friends if I say so myself
45
If living like this at thirty eight is a bore
46
Then come on god, please give me thirty eight more
47
Everybody knows I've seen a lot, yeah, I'm experienced
48
Makes you feel so old after a while just like our president
49
Every time I come back in this town I know
50
I finally know the difference
51
Between going back and going home
52
Yeah, going back and going home
