lyrics

Lying here thinking ‘there’s no place like home’
But I can’t go inside cause it’s not my home anymore
So what do I know?

Dying here would be how I wanna go
But I can’t with my pride, I will not choke on your porch
So where do I go?

I slept in my jacket and my jeans last night
It’s how I sleep when I can’t get it right
I just heard some crashing and a scream last night
And now I’ve got nowhere to go

My memory leads me somewhere I should never have ever gone
My family needs me to know I can’t keep bleeding for everyone, not for everyone
Goddess of the sun
Goddess of the sun
Goddess of the sun

Lying here, only this time I’m alone
And I can’t go inside cause it’s not my home anymore
So where do I go?

Dying here under broken rays of sun
And I stare inside just to see my ghost on the floor
Do you think she knows

That I slept in my jacket and my jeans last night
On the floor under a neon light
Once again, I saw my sisters in a dream last night
And I wish I could hold them both

My memory leads me somewhere I should never have ever gone
My family needs me to know I can’t keep bleeding for everyone, not for everyone
Goddess of the sun
Goddess of the sun
Goddess of the sun

My memory leads me into another state of oblivion
My family needs me to know my blood ain’t needed by anyone, not by anyone
Goddess of the sun
Goddess of the sun
Goddess of the sun

My memory leads me somewhere I should never have ever gone
My family needs me to know I can’t keep bleeding for everyone
Goddess of the sun
