This hospital feels like home to me, and I don't want to feel that. 
The doctors look like friends to me, then I pull back their masks. 
The whole world is shaking in front of me, and I can't find my feet. 
It's got to be better on the other side. 

And I heal, but I don't stay. Fall away. 

This home doesn't feel like home to me. 
I don't even live here. 
This room doesn't feel like home to me, these walls are always laughing. 
This home doesn't feel like home to me, I don't know where I'm going. 
Could you smile as I'm walking away? 

And I heal, but I don't stay. Fall away. 

I could wash this off, but it would not go away. 
This is not something that fades. 
And I heal, but I don't stay. Fall away.
