Verse 1
Were you laughed at by your friends
And were you lost for words when everybody finally told you what they thought
You can keep up with the trends
It makes you lose but somehow everybody always makes up in the end

Verse 2
I could hear them through the door
As people came in laughing at the way they acted when they were alone
And an arguement would start
With nothing more than this to be the love to leave you standing on your own

Bridge 1
Oh, was it something that I ate?
Oh, did it even touch the plate?
Oh, suddenly I'm feeling great
Do you like me now?

Bridge 2
Oh, am I doing it again?
Oh, I'm a loser now and then
Oh, and I smile at everything
Do you like me now?

Leaving home, life was never good to me
Leaving home, I smell the morning air
Leaving home, life was never good
If you can't work it out we're leaving home

Hope I like the life I find
When I leave everything behind
I hope I'm sure I've made my mind to go....leave home
