Vacant Home Songtext
von Movements

This home has never felt so unfamiliar
Now that you′ve gone away
These ghosts echo in the empty space
All alone, what was once a greater picture
Is now a vacant frame
Just left to wither and wane
Feeling strained, crawling on my knees against
This endless grain and dragging feet at the expense
Of progress in any way

And it's funny how the tables have turned
And the advice that you gave me is now mine to give to you
A mother′s love in four simple words
Forever keeping me, can now keep you too
And even after your departure
I swear I can hear you say
"Be good, be safe"


This vulnerability has left me struggling
Constantly moving at a pace I can't keep
This house is not a home, an emptiness I can't ignore
This house is not a home, I don′t belong here anymore
This house is not a home, an emptiness I can′t ignore
This house is not a home, I don't belong here anymore

Well, maybe they call it starting a new chapter
But I can never seem to finish the last one in time
Now the book keeps moving forward and I am always stuck one page behind
But these words that you always told me still resonate inside this space
I′m trying to be good
I'm trying to be safe

This vulnerability has left me struggling
Constantly moving at a pace I can′t keep
This house is not a home, an emptiness I can't ignore
This house is not a home, I don′t belong here anymore
This house is not a home, an emptiness I can't ignore
This house is not a home, I don't belong here anymore

This vulnerability has left me struggling
This vulnerability has left me struggling
Vulnerability
Vulnerability
