playlist shenanigans return: songs about 'home'

go home - bad veins
there's no home for you here - the white stripes
homeless club kids - my favorite
subterranean homesick alien - radiohead
homecoming - the teenagers
please take me home - blink 182

allow me a moment to regress into thesis mode and note that home is always a distant longing in these lyrics, never a physical place before your eyes. it is the negative space to your positive body.
