System Syn - Homecoming lyrics

You said you're sure I'd understand But you know god damn well That's a burden you can't give and walk away from I guess I'll know when he comes home If you're alive or if you're gone So thank you for the time I have to wait Won't you stay a little longer Before you leave us all If these words could reach you fast enough If my fingers would not bleed upon these chords You might come home Am I a coward Was I born to run away Steal the light from other men A soulless narcissist cliche And what good have I done That I should be alive today I am a coward I was born to run away And have I always been so cold That you could trust me with this cross You feel we're so connected And it scares me Just like it always does With everyone else Won't you stay a little longer In the emptiness of now Until my words can reach your ears Until my fingers bleed upon these chords There is no home
