lyrics

One day when you’re old, when you’re ancient,
you’ll know what it means to be at home
The levees will break on the banks of your cautionary soul
When you die, all the pets you’ve ever had
will meet you on the other side of life
Your previous mistakes will build a doorway in between the day and night The never-ending sound that filled your life will give you never-ending light

CHORUS
You know why I’ve come home again To show you what you’ve missed again I’ve grown up quickly, faster than you You’ll know me dearly, farther from you And oh no, give me some room
I’m on my way to the promised land I’m tired of waiting for you
so you can let go of my hand

You speak like a modest-mouthed savior
a gift to the people of the earth
like holy water runs from the tap in the place you call your world
When I rise I’ll be stronger than before
and kill you with the kindness we deserve
The bridges that I burned will be rebuilt, more protected, more secure The lessons I have learned will guide me in a new direction from before

CHORUS

You know and I know that something has just got to give Kicking and screaming is fine but it’s no way to live
I’m running forward and not looking back
This chapter’s ending and fading to black
You’re on your own now I’m dropping your slack and I’m home
