swimming in
the solace sea of remorse
brokenness finds
Attunement to a higher force
after delightful discourse
he made a home
in the caverns of my soul
the place I hide
when I have no where left to go
I still go home

opportunistic sadness
wasted time below
i could have rendered gladness
reminisce hereafter
i heard it in your laughter
before i knew vacancy in my eyes
and contemplated suicide
in the psychic madness
he's praying inside
i still go home

i still go home to you
in spite of everything
i did or didn't do
i can't pretend
i'll ever find another you
the innocence you exude
even after all the fights
i still go home

God told me to believe
in the art of destiny
arresting sweet simplicity
you murmur to me
don't shy away my baby
but i can't fulfill your needs
when you want more than me

i still go home to you
in spite of everything
i did or didn't do
i can't pretend
i'll ever find another you
even after all the fights
forever is the final flight
i still go home
