Love Song from the Forgotten

I'm often weakened by my wounds
I swallow even as I am smiling
This lump in my throat is so familiar
I don't know how, but I keep on trying

I used to laugh when I reached out my hand
Now I'm scared
Which way do I turn?
The only things I seem to touch
Are all the things that seem to burn

Oh I want to go home
Yeah, I just want to find you

You know I'm in here and I can see you
Maybe you don't believe I exist
But we are both each other's home
We both know we are the ones we miss

In this darkened room I found a window
I can see the flowers bloom outside
I don't know if I could ever leave here
But I can see you dancing in the light

When I reached for you, I felt the glass
I can't touch you, but at least I can see
I see you oh so close yet far away
I wonder if you'll ever see me be free

Oh I want to go home
Yeah, I just want to meet you

You know I'm in here and I can see you
You don't want to believe that I exist
But we are both each other's home
We both know we are the ones we miss

You are dancing and singing oh so close
I can hear you even without trying
At least, I think what I hear is singing
Sometimes I wonder if you're really crying

Today I stopped reaching out again
My hands are shaking, I feel so alone
But I will stand here, I will try to smile
As I imagine what it feels like at home

Oh I want to go home
Yeah, I just want to love you

You know I'm in here and I can see you
Please believe me that I exist
We are both each other's home
We know that we are the ones we miss

I woke up into yesterday
To see the outline of your palm
It wasn't the first time you touched the glass
I know you also want to come home

I feel you reaching for me too
But this room is locked from your side
I am all of your pain and trauma
The broken part that you try to hide

Oh I want to go home
Yeah, I need you to heal me

You know I'm in here and I can see you
Without each other we both can't exist
So we are both each other's home
We know we are the ones that we miss

Please keep singing, I know you are happy
Maybe someday I can join you, too
Maybe someday I will breathe again
Without it hurting us, or me or you

Please come closer to the glass
Close enough to help you better see
That we don't deserve to be broken
We can hold each other and be free

Oh I want to go home
Yeah, I know you want it too

You know I'm in here and I can see you
I know you're sorry that I exist
But we are both each other's home
We know we are the ones we miss

I want to come home now (please let me come home)

I want to come home now (you are my home)

I want to come home now (I am your home)

I want to come home now (we can't do this alone)

Oh I want to come home now (Ohhh, let's go home)
