lyrics

Home,
A place I never dared to call my own
When it was opened up to me I just left all alone
Because I was afraid
Not enough to admit I was every single day
When someone moves closer, I just move further away

I almost fell though
With a hundred thousand reasons not to let go
And I just sat there screaming, singing "Hell no, I'm never going to give my heart away"

Well I know it's her
The one who makes it hard to find another
The one who wakes me up to remind me I'm still hurt
So I'll drink, yeah I'll drink it all away
And if that don't work, I'll drink more all the same
'Cause what I have is what I have, no poison could ever change
A little part of me that no one can ever save

I almost fell, though
With a hundred thousand reasons not to let go
And I just sat there screaming, singing "Hell no, I'm never going to give my heart away"
She put up a fight, though
And I'd give up all my rights to see those eyes glow
And after all my pain, I might say "Hell though, I just might try to give my heart away"

And the edge of my seat is on the edge of my mind
(Won't be surprised this time, won't be left hanging on a line)
And the furthest from you is the closest I'll be
(My restless heart will set me free, never mind what I'm leaving)

I almost fell though
With a hundred thousand reasons not to let go
And I just sat there screaming, singing "Hell no, I'm never going to give my heart away"
