"Home" is a song by the American rock band Staind. It was released on November 30, 1999 as the third single from the album Dysfunction.[1]

Writing

Staind lead singer Aaron Lewis wrote this vulnerable song about being away from his wife, Vanessa, when the band goes on tours. Far from glamorous, life on the road lands him in hotels, away from his loved ones. In the song, he lays out his biggest fear: that he'll come and Vanessa will be gone.

Lewis wrote the lyric and composed the music along with his Staind bandmates, who are all credited as writers.[2]
