I've seen the terrible hand of struggle
And felt the pain the hubris brings
I have tasted the wisdom of divinity
And the horror of its sting
And though they tell you I am lost
And their words report my d**h is come
The fates have left me breathing still
Very much alive
And though my mind is cut by battles
Fought so long ago
I return victorious
I am coming home
And if the paths that I have followed
Have tread against the flow
There is no need for sorrow
I am coming home
For the distance I have traveled
Upon an ocean of despair
Have led me back into your arms once more
An answer to a little prayer
