Home Of The Lame - After Traveling lyrics

My shoes and coat are on the floor. My bags and suitcase by the door. There are souvenirs I brought and sand from when I walked one the beach. A cup of coffee, slice of bread. A distant world still in my head. Through the thoughts that keep spinning it's slowly sinking in: I am home. I love everything around me, but I know: I felt better somewhere else a week ago. Well, I know I should be glad for the bad things don't take long to follow after. But it's hard coming back and there's a world to see and people to meet out there. Rolls of film, notebooks of words - all things to proof that I was there. Through the thoughts that keep spinning it's slowly sinking in: I am home. And I know I should be glad for the bad things don't take long to follow after. But it's all coming back and there's a world to see and places that you know you never get to know.
