08.Hate It Here . I try to stay busy I do the dishes, I mow the lawn I try to keep myself occupied Even though I know you''re not coming home . I try to keep the house nice and neat I make my bed I change the sheets I even learned how to use the washing machine But keeping things clean doesn''t change anything . What am I gonna do when I run out of shirts to fold? What am I gonna do when I run out of lawn to mow? What am I gonna do if you never come home? Tell me, what am I gonna do? . I hate it I hate it here When you''re gone . I caught myself thinking I caught myself thinking once again Have to try to keep my mind out of this Try not to pretend . I''ll check the phone I''ll check the mail I''ll check the phone again and I call your mom She says you''re not there and I should take care . I hate it here When you''re gone I hate it I hate it here When you''re gone . I try to stay busy I take out the trash, I sweep the floor Try to keep myself occupied ''Cause I know you don''t live here anymore
