about

Reimagining our song that we released way back in 2005.
We considered renaming it “Always Home” in honor of the pandemic, but that joke got old very quickly. Call it whatever you'd like. We hope you enjoy it.
And if you do, please share the link with any and all you think will enjoy it.

lyrics

Almost Home

Well it's almost heaven, i'm all most gone
I'm almost right, so i'm all most wrong
It's almost Sodom, it's all most Rome
I'm almost there, i'm all most home

I'm almost happy, that's all most good
I'm almost doing, the things i should
It's almost perfect, like Styrofoam
I'm almost there, i'm all most home

There's a light in the window, a garland on the door
Smoke from the chimney, there's a rug on the floor
I see it so clearly, where ever i roam
I'm almost there, i'm almost home

It's almost midnight, it's all most tomorrow
I'm almost full, from all i beg, steal, and, borrow
I'm almost hopefull, when i pick up the phone
I'm almost there, i'm almost home

It's almost your smile, it's almost your eyes
I almost see through all your fears and the lies
I can almost believe that it's mine to own
It's almost you, i'm almost home
