Welcome Home by Radical Face

Sleep don't visit, so I choke on sun, and the days (1)________ into one
And the backs of my eyes hum with things I've never done

Sheets are swaying from an old clothesline
Like a row of captured ghosts (2)________ old dead grass
Was (3)__________ much, but we've (4)________ the most
Welcome home

Ships are launching from my chest
Some have names but most do not
If you find one, please let me know what piece I've lost

Peel the scars from off my back
I don't need them anymore
You can throw them out or keep them in (5)________ mason jars
I've (6)________ home

All my nightmares escape my head
Bar the door, (7)____________ don't let them in
You (8)________ never supposed to leave
Now my head's splitting at the seams
And I don't know if I can

Here, (9)______________ my lungs
I feel your thumbs
Press into my skin again
