House On My Back

[Verse 1]
Keys
Receipts
Old train card
Half-crushed snack in a plastic jar
Phone at 3%
Loose pen leaking on the documents
Cracked headphones
Tangled cord
Beat-up book that I never finished
Spare shirt stuffed in the corner
Like I’m ready to move in a minute
[Chorus]
I got my house on my back
Every room in this bag
Little life in a ripped-up canvas
Everything I am
Everything I drag
Yeah
My house on my back
Never know what the world might ask
So I walk this town like I own the map
With my house
My house on my back (hey!)
[Verse 2]
Wrinkled photos
Rubber band
Crowded wallet full of foreign coins
Band-aids
Cheap sunglasses
Half a plan and a lot of noise
Old receipt with your name
Crushed note I never sent
Pocket-sized apocalypse kit
For every maybe
Every what-if
[Chorus]
I got my house on my back
Every room in this bag
Little life in a ripped-up canvas
Everything I am
Everything I drag
Yeah
My house on my back
Never know what the world might ask
So I walk this town like I own the map
With my house
My house on my back (woah)
[Bridge]
If it all falls down
I’m still packed to survive
Got a toothbrush
Lighter
Charger
Tiny proof I’m alive
If the night runs long
If the sky turns black
I just tighten these straps
Carry home on my back
[Chorus]
I got my house on my back
Every room in this bag
Little life in a ripped-up canvas
Everything I am
Everything I drag
Yeah
My house on my back
Never know what the world might ask
So I walk this town like I own the map
With my house
My house on my back
My house on my back

rock, Fast alternative rock with driving drums and overdriven rhythm guitars; male vocals spitting tight, quick phrases. Verses stay punchy and lean, bass glued to a straight-ahead groove; chorus explodes with open chords, gang shouts on key lines, and a slightly over-saturated vocal. Brief middle-section drop to half-time guitars before slamming back into full-speed energy for the last hook., alternative rock
