I can relate to this song by just living in Vietnam. I'm not saying that Vietnam is horrible, because I am Vietnamese, but sometimes I just feel like I don't belong here. For example,"This is my temporary home, it's not where I belong, windows and rooms that I'm passin' through, this is just a stop on the way where I'm going, I'm not afraid because I know this is my temporary home" in the chorus. Most of the time, I think that it's because I can't really understand what people are saying and because of that, I don't know what is happening around me, so I feel left out. I have a lot of thoughts of what would happen to me if I lived back in California, even questioning myself, such as "Would it affect my future?". But I think that California is where I belong, becuase my friends there stragely understand me, and almost all my family lives there, literally. Either way, friends and family are probably the most important things in life so my reasoning makes sense. In conclusion, Vietnam is currently my "temporary home" and California is where I should really go.
