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't keep up with the trend
It makes you lose but somehow everybody always makes up in the end
Oh, was it something that I ate
Oh, didn't even touch my plate
Oh, suddenly I'm feeling great
Do you like me now

Chorus:
Leaving home, life was never good to me
Leaving home, I smell the morning air
Leaving home, life was never good
You can work it out we're leaving home

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 argument can start with nothing more than this
To be the light and leave you standing on your own
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

Chorus

Verse 3:
Hope I like the life I find when I leave everything behind
I hope I'm sure I've made my mind to go and leave home

Chorus

    General Comment:this is one of my favorite jeb songs, i love it, love it love it love it! the lyrics are pretty straight forward so no need to describe what they the songs about. Jeb should be better recognised for their music but anyway, as long as the people who acknowledge how good their music is..then thats all that counts! jeb rock!
