Back Home

Night falls, but I'm awake and dreaming of a future
Where we can learn to love each other as an equal people
With my own insecurities, I've learned to hide
And found the deepest place within where my demons reside
I don't know about them, but I'm not scared to die
I know my heart and why my eyes have shed the tears I've cried
It's hard to see the world so clear...
while the rest seem blind
But I overcome the fears and fight the struggles in my mind
Don't judge another for anything but what's left Inside
Cause when you're broken, your true character is sure to rise
So you can't tell me who I am, or what I'm meant to be
Or know the things I had to see and feel to finally find... me
I was searching to find peace
I was bleeding to live free
I was dying inside weak
I was screaming inside hoping you would break the wall and look at me
So you thought you knew me better? Like it was before?

Well before I could touch the sky I had to fall and hit the floor
I'm only human, what do you expect of me?
All I can do for you is be the best that I can be
So if I give you all I have inside, my heart to keep
Am I wrong to expect your best to come to me?
And comfort me, when I need a hand to guide
When I need the will to try and use my mind to push the line aside
Then we can learn to fly...

Can we just press play, and find the strength to pave a way
For those that fell apart before their time has come to lay

It's time to play, so roll the dice and seize the day
You'll never know what life can be, unless you stray away
I know it's scary, but we knew this day would come along
Another moment left in time, where I could write a song
Another part of growing up we couldn't sing along
Just stay strong... just stay strong
Please for me, I swear one day you'll come to be
I swear it, I swear in time I'll learn to breathe
I'll climb the mountain, and brush the dirt off of my knees
I'll look the keeper in the eyes and I'll swallow it's seed

Then hold the power of a million discovered in three
When the moment's right, you'll learn to see
That place in time I was given to burn beside that tree
You'll never know how much that time in life has meant to me
So listen to my words then you can hear it in my tone
Until I find the light that rests upon the amber throne
Find me through your speakers, you'll never have to be alone
Once I find myself, I promise you... I'll come back home
