Get Home Lyrics

[Into]
How am I gonna get myself back home? I, I, I
How am I gonna get myself back home? I, I, I

[Verse 1]
We are the last people standing
At the end of the night
We are the greatest pretenders
In the cold morning light

[Pre-Chorus]
This is just another night
And we've had many of them
To the morning we're cast out
But I know I'll land here again

[Chorus]
How am I gonna get myself back home? I, I, I
How am I gonna get myself back home? I, I, I

[Verse 2]
There's a light in the bedroom
But it's dark
Scattered around on the floor
All my thoughts
[Pre-Chorus]
This is just another night
And we've had many of them
To the morning we're cast out
But I know I'll land here again

[Chorus]
How am I gonna get myself back home? I, I, I
Oh, how am I gonna get myself back home? I, I, I

[Bridge]
The birds are mocking me
They call to be heard
The birds are mocking me
They curse my return

[Chorus]
How am I gonna get myself back home? I, I, I
How am I gonna get myself back home? I, I, I
Oh, how am I gonna get myself back home? I, I, I
How am I gonna get myself back home? I, I, I'm lost

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
