Always Come Home - Alt

[Intro] Soft ambient synths, distant vinyl crackle, warm pulse, intimate male vocals [Verse 1] One day the world’s gonna pull you fast Tell you who to be What to chase What to hide behind They’ll tell you mistakes define your name Like one bad night can stain your whole life But listen close, sweetheart That ain’t true You don’t gotta be perfect You don’t gotta know everything now You’re allowed to try and fall apart Then try again somehow [Pre-Chorus] If your dreams keep changing shapes That’s okay That’s life If college fits your heart Go chase it If working with your hands feels right That’s a future too [Chorus] You never have to earn this love You already got it If you fail a hundred times We’ll still clap the loudest You don’t have to be fearless Just don’t stop coming home Even when the whole world hurts You don’t gotta hurt alone [Verse 2] There’s gonna be people selling poison Calling it freedom Calling it fun Don’t trade your soul away Just to feel accepted by someone And if you ever mess up bad Or feel ashamed of where you’ve been Call Mom and Dad anyway Don’t sit alone with it No screaming No love getting weaponized No door ever locked on you We just wanna know you’re safe At the end of the day [Pre-Chorus] I’m still learning too But I’ll stand beside you while we figure it out You don’t gotta carry every storm By yourself now [Chorus] You never have to earn this love You already got it If you fail a hundred times We’ll still clap the loudest You don’t have to be fearless Just don’t stop coming home Even when the whole world hurts You don’t gotta hurt alone [Bridge] If the world makes you feel too small If your friends disappear If somebody breaks your heart If life gets weird and hard and unfair Call us anyway No matter the hour No matter the mess No matter how far you ran This home was built for you Before you even took your first breath [Final Chorus] You never have to earn this love You already got it If your whole world falls apart We’ll help you rebuild it You don’t have to be fearless Just don’t stop coming home I won’t always have the right words But I’ll answer every call [Outro] Soft synths fading, emotional ambient swell, layered harmonies If you’re scared and it’s 2AM Call me anyway We’ll come get you No questions first We just want you safe [end song]
