Now This House Ain’t A Home Lyrics English Translation by Ateez
That piece of me that never left
Has much to see to not regret
What you’re to be don’t have to be
You never know what’s around the bend
Mothers to daughters
Who turn sons into fathers
In time, we all get taller
While sometimes feeling smaller
Now this house ain’t a home
No, this house ain’t a home
This darkness covering my eyes
Outside, they’re loud, judging everything, you see
Shrinking back, loading my sighs with complaints
Letting someone else define my beliefs and worth
This place is cold to me, so cold
The whole world feels dizzy, dizzy
We gotta break free, wholly ourselves
To a place that can embrace us as we are
Tear the curtains, let’s go—to my new home
I still choose the playground over home
Still that three-year-old habit, the kid who ran away
The slide felt cozier than any bed
Guilty of stacking new homes, not knowing the old one’s worth
The silhouettes shining through the window
The voices echoing down the hall
Even the TV we gathered around on Sunday nights
I miss the house that was just a house
That piece of me that never left
Has much to see to not regret
What you’re to be don’t have to be
You never know what’s around the bend
Mothers to daughters
Who turn sons into fathers
In time, we all get taller
While sometimes feeling smaller
Now this house ain’t a home
No, this house ain’t a home
Goodbye, I asked myself
Are you still there?
Hating the you who grew unbalanced
Where exactly—where even is it, yeah?
I gotta find that sea of peace
So I leave, into the wide plains
Setting off down this endless road
When night falls, the anxiety comes
A taste so hard to swallow
I gulp it down, tears fall
A downpour in my blurred vision
Hold on one more day, then once more
Hoping someday I’ll reach that place
That piece of me that never left
Has much to see to not regret
What you’re to be don’t have to be
You never know what’s around the bend
Mothers to daughters
Who turn sons into fathers
In time, we all get taller
While sometimes feeling smaller
Now this house ain’t a home
No, this house ain’t a home
‘Cause this house ain’t a home
‘Cause this house ain’t a home
