[Verse 1] My shoes by the mat Next to Dad’s old mail Mom’s name on the notes By the sugar and tea I come in late Try to be quiet The floor says hello With every creak to me [Pre-Chorus] I know the code I know the drill No slamming doors No sudden thrills They ask where I’m at I say “I’m fine” But I still feel ten When I hear “come inside” [Chorus] Living with my parents Living with my parents I keep my heart In a top drawer Living with my parents Living with my parents Half of me grown Half still locked in the door [Verse 2] Dad fixes the sink Like it’s personal Mom folds my shirts With a careful hand My old room holds A stack of boxes And a guitar case With a cracked rubber band I pay my share I wash my plate I say I’m moving Any day, any day Then the dog runs up And steals my sock And I laugh too hard At the kitchen clock [Pre-Chorus] I know the code I know the drill No slamming doors No sudden thrills They ask where I’m at I say “I’m fine” But I still feel ten When I hear “come inside” [Chorus] Living with my parents Living with my parents I keep my heart In a top drawer Living with my parents Living with my parents Half of me grown Half still locked in the door [Bridge] Maybe one day I’ll have my own key No lunchbox on the counter No one calling for me But tonight the table Still leaves me a seat And that kind of love Is a hard thing to beat [Chorus] Living with my parents Living with my parents I keep my heart In a top drawer Living with my parents Living with my parents Half of me grown Half still locked in the door
