I've never said these words out loud
I couldn't bare the pain of it
Surely I would go insane
So if you want to leave
I won't grab onto your sleeve
I won't fight you to stay
Because this talk is scarring
And I won't tell you to go
And I won't tell you to stay
All I want you to know
Is your my home

My past is flawed
And my future unknown
You are my rock
I'm your stone

Of all the things I've seen
Of all the places I've gone
Of all the people I've been
Your heart still guides me where I need to be
Even when I can't be found
I just want your to know
You've been my compass all along

And these words kept inside
That have haunted me for so long
Are about to be set free
For I know you will not taunt
You'll trust me as I am

That look in your eyes
Makes me feel safe inside
And your arms around me
Just show me the love that you feel
I just want you to know
You are my home
