lyrics

Found myself alone last night out wandering downtown
At the bus stop for the company, not knowing where I’m bound
The Lost Boys came and went, but through it all I still ain’t found
An honest reason why the hell I’m still around.
Two years in the making, I’m an artist of the south
Always with one foot out the door, I can’t quite plant them in the ground
But the streets are filled with all that shit that crawled out of our mouths
And coming home’s not quite the same as I recalled
So lord, I’m coming home
I’ve lost sight of who I am and now I’ve got no place to go
But what it is I’ve given up, I couldn’t claim to know
So lord, I’ve lost my way back home
I’m losing hope.
Tick tock, down the block, I’m trudging through a haze
It’s the way that strangers stare at me, they know that I’ve seen better days
If I told them how I got here, boy they’d really be amazed
At all the things I’ve done and yes, I am ashamed.
So just run, run, run away, get far away from here
Don’t break the newfound balance of the heart you once held very near
So I’ll stay in the shadows, I’ll stay silent through the years
And pray that one day, we both will disappear
I’ll disappear…
So lord, I’m coming home
I’ve lost sight of who I am and now I’ve got no place to go
But what it is I’ve given up, I couldn’t claim to know
So lord, I’ve lost my way back home
