The Way Home

Lying still, head awake, eyes closed tight and thoughts
Ablaze
It´s coursing like a river going through my mind, just taking
Hits from the hands of time
Silence can be so odd, it's like looking around for the
Eyes of God
There´s a truth somewhere that I just can´t find
Taking hits from the hands of time
And I wonder if you were here right now, would you sit
With me beneath this darkened shroud?
In this prison built of bricks of shame, I want to tear
It down in to the frame
If you smash your life up against the wall, you want to
Break it like a bottle and just let go
But I don´t know if there´s a God at all, I just know I
Can´t live like this no more
I just know I can´t live like this no more
And the hours go by endlessly
And the days are spent breathlessly
And the night's begging for some
Sleep or the endless time alone
In their faces the boys in line
There was fear in their eyes
And they all, we just want to find a
Way home, home, home, home
I can hear the birds, see the light outside, stand up
Like a man and swallow my pride
I can write these words down in a rhyme. They´ve been
Beaten from me by the hands of time
And I don´t know why it´s always this way, and I hang
My head low in the light of day
All I know is I´m tired of being afraid, I got to walk
This road on these bricks I´ve laid
Ah, the trumpets and the marching bands, and the
Thunder claps at the trembling hands
All the people stood up in the stands, and I just felt
So alone
´Cause the halos looked like rusted chains in the light
As we screamed in the dark, I just wanted to find a way
Home, home, home, home
The truth is I´m not brave or sure, I just know I can´t
Live like this no more
I don´t know what I´ve been waiting for, I just know I
Can´t live like this no more
The truth is I´m not brave or sure, I just know I can´t
Live like this no more
I don´t know what I´ve been waiting for, I just know I
Can´t live like this no more
And I don´t know if this road will end at your door, I
Just know I can´t live like this no more
I don´t even know what I`m heading for, I just know I
Can´t live like this no more
I just know I can´t live like this no more
I just know I can't live like this
No more
