[Verse 1] Played football Benched most of the time Basketball nights Buzzers and bleachers But it was running Long stride for distance Cold breath Only then I felt in my own Built a computer On my bedroom floor Rebuilt my first car Till my knuckles bled But on that first motorcycle Engine in my chest On that first motorcycle I felt home [Chorus] That first time I felt home Wind in my ribs World in a blur Didn’t know where I’d go Just knew I was gone from who I was First time I felt home First time I felt home [Verse 2] Fixed phones in nukes Quiet silos mid-nowhere Coded doors Captured images on film Light leaking in Hands shaking Flying Solo the first time Like I’d stolen my own future Looking down knew I'd grown I felt home [Chorus] That first time I felt home Wind in my ribs World in a blur Didn’t know where I’d go Just knew I was gone from who I was First time I felt home First time I felt home [Verse 3] Still working on computers fixing phones and networks pays the bills Loving singing on stage and singing with groups teaching others to fly wandering on two wheels Filling my heart with happiness I feel home [Bridge] All these lives Stacked in my skin All these trades I’ve carried like names Every path I took To get away from nowhere Every road Somehow led me back to you (home) [Outro] [decrescendo] I still really feel at home when the Winds in my ribs Worlds in a blur Don’t know where I’m going Just know I'm gone from who I was I'm always going home always going home going home home
