song lyrics "home" how true! maybe you can relate too	Permalink

I heard this song in the middle of all the crap last nite. It was so true except the part of being stoned. I don't do that anymore. (rock ) It sucks to feel you live alone when you don't. THREE DAYS GRACE LYRICS "Home" I’ll be coming home Just to be alone Cause I know you’re not there And I know that you don’t care I can hardly wait to leave this place No matter how hard I try You’re never satisfied This is not a home I think I’m better off alone You always disappear Even when you’re here This is not my home I think I’m better off alone Home, home, this house is not a Home, home, this house is not a home By the time you come home I’m already stoned You turn off the TV And you scream at me I can hardly wait Till you get off my case No matter how hard I try You’re never satisfied This is not a home I think I’m better off alone You always disappear Even when you’re here This is not my home I think I’m better off alone Home, home, this house is not a Home, home, this house is not a Home, home, this house is not a Home, home, this house is not a home I’m better off alone No matter how hard I try You’re never satisfied This is not a home I think I’m better off alone You always disappear Even when you’re here This is not my home I think I’m better off alone Home, home, this house is not a Home, home, this house is not a Home, home, this house is not a Home, home, this house is not a home [Thanks to krissi_700@hotmail.com for these lyrics] [ www.azlyrics.com ] __________________ D.E.A.

...By the time you come home I’m already stoned You turn off the TV And you scream at me I can hardly wait Till you get off my case No matter how hard I try You’re never satisfied This is not a home I think I’m better off alone You always disappear Even when you’re here This is not my home... Yup, that part of the song right there.... only I could see my A singing it and me being the one screaming and getting on his case and disappearing... that is what this disease did to ME. I was miserable, he was miserable. Our house was not a "home" anymore. Through Al-Anon I learned to change my attitude and behavior. To stop my own insane thinking and actions. I learned the difference between "detaching" (escaping, disappearing) and "detachment with love" (still showing love and concern and being a part of my loved one's life, yet leaving him to the consequences of his own actions). As I learned this and began behaving and thinking differently, our homelife DID change. It once again became a "home", not just a house. Unconditional love with healthy personal boundaries. Looking at my part of things rather than focusing on his part and blaming everything on him and the drinking. I came to see that a lot of the unpleasantness and miserableness of our life lay squarely on MY doorstep. I thank HP for guiding me to Al-Anon so that I was able (and am able) to "see" myself now and change the things I can... myself. Luv, Kis __________________ Let your light shine in the darkness.
