Go Home, Danny

I can’t believe 
The situations you get yourself into 
Not that I don’t see 
The difficulty of all that you’ve been through 
But level with me 
When I lock up and leave, there’s gonna be a new issue 
There’s no getting clean 
Until you wake up and see the trouble coming to get you  Danny, I told you to go home 
Why are you sleeping on my couch? 
You could’ve opened a window  
When you lit a cigarette and passed out 
I wish I knew how to help you 
But man, you’re a danger to yourself 
And I don’t know what to tell you 
This is perfectly controllable, it won’t take a miracle 
To fix your emotional health  You’ve spent a couple of days 
Out of your parents’ place, Danny, why don’t you call them?
So they know you’re okay 
You know they don’t see your face really all that often 
Boy, you’re slipping away 
Getting high at the lake when the boredom comes knocking 
Do you need an escape?
Does every day feel like a nail in the coffin?  Danny, I told you to go home 
Why are you sleeping on my couch? 
You could’ve opened a window  
When you lit a cigarette and passed out 
I wish I knew how to help you 
But man, you’re a danger to yourself 
And I don’t know what to tell you 
This is perfectly controllable, it won’t take a miracle 
To fix your emotional health  You know I’d love you to stay, but we need you to get well 
And I can’t tear you away from your own personal hell 
But despite your mistakes, I really hope you can tell  That when I tell you to go home 
It’s not just to get you off my couch 
Or make you feel like an asshole 
It’s just that I know that you need help 
And there is nowhere to run to  
To make all your problems solve themselves 
And Danny, I’ll always love you 
And that is so non-negotiable, if it takes a miracle 
We’ll fix your emotional health 
That is so non-negotiable 
If it takes a miracle 
We’ll fix your emotional health
