little less fortified 
little more out of mind 
Now we're walking with feet so light 
Alright, alright 

All of that banging in 
The cage your heart had then 
They were screaming so loud, 
"Just let me in, I'm human" 

When I said 'love' 
What I meant was... 
When I said 'love' 

When I said 'love' 
I meant 'close enough' 
But when I said 'home' 
I meant every shore but yours 
Was so foreign 'til I found my own 

When a period ends the line 
It's just a scar for a word I couldn't write 
And whenever I mention time 
It just means I've always changed my mind 

But where I wrote 'sunrise' 
It meant that I'd been so blind 
But where I wrote 'fine' 
I just meant 'fine' 

And where I wrote 'whiskey glass' 
My greatest mistake, I guess 
The word that I wrote 
When I should've screamed 'yes' 

And when I said 'love' 
I meant 'close enough' 
But when I said 'home' 
I meant every shore but yours 
Was so foreign 'til I found my own. 

But I don't expect you to know.
