Gone Home - Dan Bull

My name’s Kaitlin

I’ve been away since this time last year

Ages and ages

I’ve been abroad

I’t been a long road

But I’m getting bored

So I’ve got aboard and gone home

Get through the door

I don’t really know

Where anybody is

As if there’s nobody home

Hopefully though

I’ll find a clue

It better be a joke they’re trying to do

I’ve gone home

And I’m on my own

I’ve gone home

And I’m all alone

I’ve been around everywhere

Nothing found yet

I’ve looked outside

I’ve looked downstairs

I’ve looked upstairs

Tell me now where?

I’m well scared

This is getting pretty out there

Where’s Mom and Dad

Where’s Samantha

Somewhere in the mansion

There’s an answer

Have they left?

Are they dead from cancer?

Kidnapped by the Feds or gangsters?

I’m wracked with a sense of dread

So deep i could believe it was a necromancer

There’s an atmosphere that’s noxious

Something bleak and evil watches

But there’s nothing here but sheets and boxes

Nobody’s holding people hostage

I just need the key

To reveal each secret

Like a seasoned locksmith

I’ve gone home

And I’m on my own

I’ve gone home

And I’m all alone

I’ve gone home

And I’m on my own

I’ve gone home

And I’m all alone

I’m losing my mind in a psycho house

So I pray no lights go out

It’s just me, my lone self

No family, no life, no sound

No clues so I know nought

And I’m bloody terrified on my own, help!

All I have is letters and scraps

No weapons except for this map

I’m desperate for something better than that

If I have any chance to defend from attacks

Not there is a hatch

To enter the attic

It’s the place that I’ve left to the last bit

Now I’ve got the key

I’m prepared to get past it

I need to know either way whether it’s tragic

Or whether my head has gone mad

And so I hold on to my breath

And then grab it

I’ve gone home

And I’m on my own

I’ve gone home

And I’m all alone

I’ve gone home

And I’m on my own

I’ve gone home

And I’m all alone
