"homesick" by soul asylum

h o m e s i c k - s o u l a s y l u m

i want to live with you in the fifth dimension, in a dream i've never had
'cause i just can't live like this in a world like this
i just want a kiss good-bye

but we are not of this world and there's a place for us
stuck inside this fleeting moment, tucked away where no one owns it
wrapped up in a haste and by mistake got thrown away
and, oh, i am so homesick
but it ain't that bad
'cause i'm homesick for the home i've never had

and though i sometimes get annoyed i know just where i'm at this is my song of joy
and now i know there are no secret tricks, no correct politics
just liars and lunatics

and we are not of this world and there's a place for us
stuck inside this fleeting moment, tucked away where no one owns it
wrapped up in a haste and by mistake got thrown away
and, oh, i am so homesick
but it ain't that bad
'cause i'm homesick for the home i've never had

though i would not take it personally
it's just the child in me who never really knew how much i had
woe is me, i am so homesick
but it ain't that bad
'cause i'm homesick for the home i've never had

Act V. THE TRUTH. (Love is hard work. And, sometimes, hard work can really hurt.) Love is a game. If they didn't tell you before, we will tell you now. Love is a game and if you play you either win, lose, or get ejected before the game is over. There are no ties. Maybe you'll lose and learn some great, meaningful answer from it all (like if it looks to good to be true, it is). It's easy to love something when you don't have to work at it. It's harder when it asks something of you. You just might be afraid to give. Give it anyway. The heart is the most resilient muscle. It is also the stupidest. So if this love you've found is good to you, hold it, keep it, shout about it. If it isn't, then maybe you should just become very good friends.
