So maybe I will find a broken place to call my throne
They say home is where the heart is, but mine is made of stone
And I've walked 50 miles to hear the child's voice
And at that it's pretty faint, I wasn't given a choice
Pacing and pondering, no sleep and wandering around
Oh this isn't what we had in mind
I guess we'll take it day by day
And I'm not sure exactly if I'll go or if I'll stay
(A thin wall that's keeping me from all these consistencies I have
It's what we've waited for, for all of our lives
And I'm gonna try to bend or break you, and if a leave a scratch
I'm certain I can charge right through.)
Bring me back to my slumber, my dreams are what cause me to wonder
Savor all the memories, block out all the enemies
Wake up in a cold, cold sweat, screaming
And I guess it's what we call redemption
The sad thoughts in my mind I forgot to mention
The familiar realm is seeming, to be the escape that I've been needing
These substances, These crutches
And I'm still standing on my own two feet
So many souls I have yet to meet
I've gone to the greatest lengths to put the past behind me
To put the past behind me
