Home before 6

[Intro] Five fifty-two Key turns slow Door clicks shut Shoes by the wall Don't wake her up Too late [Azula — softly spoken] You're back. [Juri] ...Yeah. [Verse 1] Cold still hanging from my coat Rainwater running from my hair Three hours walking nowhere And somehow you were everywhere Graveyard moon Empty trains First light bleeding through the rain I thought I'd make it home Before you knew I'd gone Should've known better [Azula — spoken] Tea? [Juri] Please. [Pre-Chorus] No questions No careful stare No "where were you?" No "why weren't you here?" You just move my cup Closer to your side Like you knew I'd come back tonight [Chorus] I always come back home After the city gets quiet After I run out of road I always come back home To your tea getting cold To your hand finding mine Like leaving for a while Never meant leaving you behind I always come back Home [Verse 2] You notice everything I don't say The empty juice box in my hand The dirt along my boots The way I'm finally breathing again You don't fix me Don't even try Just brush wet hair Out of my eyes [Azula — spoken] Better? [Juri] Yeah. Much. [Pre-Chorus] Morning climbing through the blinds Purple fading into white Your shoulder's warm The room is still And suddenly I've had enough night [Chorus] I always come back home After the city gets quiet After I run out of road I always come back home To your tea getting cold To your hand finding mine Like leaving for a while Never meant leaving you behind I always come back Home [Bridge] [Juri — softer] Sometimes I need the silence Sometimes I need the rain Sometimes I need a place Where nobody knows my name But every empty platform Every rooftop in the dawn Eventually reminds me There's somewhere I belong [Azula — quiet] Come here, Juri. [Instrumental] [Final Chorus] I always come back home No matter how far I wander No matter how late I roam I always come back home Morning light on your face My head against your shoulder The whole damn city waking up And I don't need it anymore I always come back I always come back Home [Outro] [Azula] You look exhausted. [Juri] Don't start, Princess. [Azula] Bed. [Juri] ...Fine. [Short silence] [Juri — sleepy] Missed you. [Azula — very softly] I know, darling. [Door closes.]
