Home

​

I sense that something's wrong

I've been here much too long

Do I need to be strong?

The fire dies

Waitress sighs

And tells me to go                  home

​

I have too much to lose

I'm being torn in two

I shouldn't have to choose

I gaze outside

Then decide

Tonight I'm going                   home

​

Home where I'm safe

Home in defeat

Where, when I'm wounded I retreat

​

Why has there been no call?

I would struggle for breath

I'm still too high to fall

For it feels like a death

I thought we had it all

So I just left

I'll take the train

Brave the rain

And make my way, Home
