Cavetown - This Is Home Lyrics






Often I am upset that I cannot fall in love but I guess
This avoids the stress of falling out of it
Are you tired of me yet? I'm a little sick right now but I swear
When I'm ready I will fly us out of here

Ooh... I'll cut my hair
Ooh... to make you stare
Ooh... I'll hide my chest
And I'll figure out a way to get us out of here

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Turn off your porcelain face, I can't really think right now and this place
Has too many colours enough to drive all of us insane
Are you dead? sometimes I think I'm dead
Cause I can feel ghosts and ghouls wrapping my head
But I don't wanna fall asleep just yet

Ooh... my eyes went dark
Ooh... I don't know where
Ooh... my pupils are
But I'll figure out a way to get us out of here

Get a load of this monster
He doesn't know how to communicate
His mind is in a different place
Will everybody please give him a little bit of space
Get a load of this train-wreck
His hair's a mess and he doesn't know who he is yet
But little do we know, the stars
Welcome him with open arms

Ooh... time is
Ooh... slowly
Ooh... tracing his face
But strangely he feels at home in this place

    So, I was playing truth or dare with my besties the other day. When I was picked I had picked truth at one point. They asked me what was the biggest lie I've ever told. I lied and made something up. Once it was my turn again I said truth again. They asked me if I was honest on the last one. I broke down and said that the biggest lie I've ever told was "I'm fine"

  42. L.... R....

    My bestfriend would sing this to me before he told me he was trans. Now I understand. I cryyyyy

    L.... R....

    That's so amazing!

    Is it just me or does the end sound like it could transition into Cradles

  46. H.... B....

    Often when I'm upset, that I can not fall in love but I guess. This avoids stress falling out of it..
    Are you tired of me yet? I'm a little sick right now but I swear I will fly us out of there...


    I'll cut my hair..

    To make you stare

    I'll hide my chest and I'll figure out a way to get us out of here

    Turn of your, porcelain face I cant really think right now in this place, theres too many colors enough to drive all of us insane. Are you dead? Sometimes I think I'm dead cause theres ghost and ghouls, unwrapping my head but I dont want to fall asleep just yet..

    My eyes went dark..

    I dont know where...

    My pupils are, but I'll figure out a way to get us out of here...

    Take a look at this monster he dosnet know how to communicate. His mind is in a different place! Will everybody please give him a little bit, of space?

    Take a look at this trainwreck, his hairs a mess he dosent know who his just yet..
    But time is slowly welcoming him in open arms...
    Open arms...

    Time is..


    Slowly...

    Tracing his face, but strangely he feels at home in this place...
    Strangely he feels at home in this place..

  47. L.... D....

    To everyone who are feeling sad..

    Have my love and support.
    It lasts forever

  48. A.... A....

    Oh who like this song like here
    👇; )

  49. S.... ....

    Some time ago, earlier this year, I planned to play this in a concert. Our school does monthly concerts in a museum. Low-key. Casual. Basically you tell them you'd like to perform and you're in. It was my first solo ever. Just me and a ukulele. No one else. I practiced any time I could to the point of doing the chords in the middle of class. I thought I sounded so good in the practice rooms. I was so proud of myself for trying it. I was just genuinely happy about it.

    Anyway, the night comes. I'd had a really good day for a lot of different reasons. When I get there, I'm talking with the other soloists and they ask what I'm going to play. I tell them it's this. They all get so excited because they love this one. They all wish me luck and tell me I'll be great (they're some of the nicest people I've ever met).


    I hear them call my name, I walk out, I sit down, I start playing. My parents are filming, my friend is smiling. End of first verse I mess up, panic and leave.

    Spent the rest of the concert desperately trying not to cry. My friend sees that I'm crying and instantly knows why. She then said this.
    "I did my first solo when I was 8. In front of my entire school. I messed up a bit and left the stage. I couldn't even keep my head up the next day I was so embarrassed. I was 8. You're [my current age] so get over it. No one gives a damn. It was a depressing song anyway"

    I haven't done a solo in one of those concerts since. I haven't even really been to one.

    If your friend is crying or fighting back tears, be there for them. Doesn't matter how "insignificant" their problem is. Doesn't matter if you've been through the same thing and had the same reaction but because you were younger it was more justified to react with tears. That is your friend who is crying. You were younger. You've had the time to look back at it. You've had years to rebuild your confidence. That friend might have not even had half an hour yet. Help them. Tell them what you would have wanted to hear.

    Thing is, despite having basically sworn off singing that song since then, I still do the chords whenever I hear this.

  50. i.... ....

    such a sad song but true for me

  51. R.... �....

    Me: confuzzled about sexuality and stressing about it every night when I’m just silently laying there
    Cavetown: im bout to end this mans whole career

  52. �.... �....

    My friend today had this song on and I started to sing it, and she was like "you are not aloud to sing this because it means alot to me and I loved this song way before you" and I stayed in silence because I didn't know what to say 😬

  53. s.... ....

    remindeds me of my missery

  54. B.... L....

    This would work so well with a naruto edit

  55. S.... J....

    2k likes and I'll come out

  56. a.... ....

    I'll survive. even if I don't have the strength. I'll do it.

  57. a.... ....

    I wasn't myself for a long time (still not am) and nobody noticed.

  58. R.... T....

    This is something which describes a feeling I couldn't

  59. D.... L....

    *are you tired of me yet?* *i'm a little sick right now but i swear* *when i'm ready i'll fly us out of here*

  60. c.... g....

    welcome to the best side of youtube :)

  61. V.... M....

    okay, i see a lot of people saying this is a song about being transgender, but isn’t Robbie cisgender?

  62. k.... :....

    i love this song lol

  63. X.... 1....

    This song hit me hard... Because i have a friend who is transgender. She changed because of people judging her. She told me she wanted to die and she wanted to disappear. I tried my best to support her! But i guess it was to late...


    1 like= I angel to Dessy!

    X.... 1....

    Did she do what I think she did?

    X.... 1....

    Mayo nnaise, yes she did...

  64. s.... r....

  65. A.... C....

    Lowkey getting Where The Wild Things Are movie vibes from all the ooooooooooooo’s in the song

  66. C.... B....

    I love this song! It’s an absolute masterpiece!

  67. I.... E....

    This song inspires me to be a boy, Eventhough i'm dating a guy. But, letting people know that being gay isn't a sin cause' we were males before and they have to accept who we are. I appreciate how i am depressed and isolating.

    I.... E....

    Don't get mad at me but I go by the bible but I'm not homophobic😀

    I.... E....

    Logan, You should know that i'm a female once and yet. I was a male in my pasts lives, So if you can prove that gay isn't a sin. Might if you have evidence?

  68. N.... N....

    Ok lets agree. We all have felt this. It has stabbed us deep.

  69. Y.... 1....

    That hit me so hard omg
    Dysphoria is one of the worst pain i ever felt

  70. �.... ....

    *Depression* is living in a body that fights to survive with a mind that tries to die

  71. V.... P....

    I'm battling with depression.
    The voices in my head won't leave.
    It feels impossible to smile.





    But, "I'm fine"

  72. T.... B....

    Put playback speed 0.75
    *thank me later*

  73. M.... R....

  77. T.... H....

    I wonder if people understand this songs about dysphoria and not just being upset....

  78. T.... ....

    This song hit me hard.
    I've been listening to it even before knowing about the LGBT+ community and damn, listening to it again make me realize I've known all along about who I was.
    I mean, I'm still struggling with my identity but I'm accepting myself and slowly loving myself for who I am.
    Being able to heard this song I was crazy about 2 years ago, wow.
    Everyone deserves support so, if anyone is feeling down, just come to talk !

    Stay strong ! One day, you'll be able to express yourself for who you are ! As someone who had the same problem in the past (and still have in a way) , I know how hard sometimes it can get. But remember that's temporary and you will able to do it ! Ask each time you need to cut your hair or maybe pay yourself the hairdresser. Your money,your body, they can't say anything about those !
    Lot of love !!
