Homesick from Homesick by Jason David Tanner

Dad left his car running in the garage
No one seems to know why.
Put his clothes out on the bed
Didn't get to wave goodbye

He laid down on the couch
to rest his weary eyes
Mom hadn’t felt well that day
She’d seen her last sunrise

Now please wake up
Now please wake up
Please wake up
Please use wake up

My brother had to break down the door
The police all came inside
My brother practicing sincerity
Looking for jewelry he could hide

And I’m on the other side
Apart by 4,000 lonely miles
Trying not to lose myself
And read between the lines.

And please wake up
Now please wake up
Oh, lease wake up
Please wake up
Now please wake up
Now please wake up
Please wake up

Married fifty-one years
On their anniversary they died
A tragedy left in their wake
None of us survived
I’m always on the outside
A victim of my pride
Their voices just an echo
In my dreams they now reside

I’m almost home
Please wake up
I’m all alone
Please wake up
It’s not fair
Please wake up
I’m on the stairs
Please wake up
A broken home
Please wake up
