I'm in a bad way astray and I struggle with my conscious
And hurt the ones I loved while I stumble through the darkness
I look at all the messes I've made and it hurts
I pray for God to help and then I pray that it works
Look around at the broken down houses I've built
The empty promises erected on a mountain of guilt
I'm a once proud coward on a tower
And I'm sour because the whole thing is starting to tilt
I just wanna go home
I just wanna go home, I just wanna go home
And forget about the world around me, let it all turn to stone
Take all the hurt, all the pain and just give it away, give it away
I just wanna go home, I just wanna go home
I've got a long list of people who I've wrong in the past
If I knew me then I'd probably kick my ass
I just didn't understand as a man
That there's no security of immaturity I badly wish could last
See I had to crash and burn for my ass to learn
I needed to grow up and it was way past my turn
I left a wake of bad choices in the lake of life
I can't imagine what it'd take to make it right
I face the glass of my bathroom mirror where the tears were shred
Where the lies upon lies over years were spread
Where I face my biggest foe and look him dead in the eyes
Watch him curl up into a ball from the stress as he cries
I got a cold soul with no pep in my stride
From the struggle that left me troubled and bereft of my pride
I couldn't stop the bleeding even with the pressure applied
I died and there's nothing left to revive
I just wanna go home
I just wanna go home, I just wanna go home
And forget about the world around me, let it all turn to stone
Take all the hurt, all the pain and just give it away, give it away
I just wanna go home, I just wanna go home
