Lyrics The Airborne Toxic Event

The Airborne Toxic Event

The Way Home

Lying still, head awake, eyes closed tight and thoughts

Ablaze

It´s coursing like a river going through my mind, just taking

Hits from the hands of time

Silence can be so odd, it's like looking around for the

Eyes of God

There´s a truth somewhere that I just can´t find

Taking hits from the hands of time

And I wonder if you were here right now, would you sit

With me beneath this darkened shroud?

In this prison built of bricks of shame, I want to tear

It down in to the frame

If you smash your life up against the wall, you want to

Break it like a bottle and just let go

But I don´t know if there´s a God at all, I just know I

Can´t live like this no more

I just know I can´t live like this no more

And the hours go by endlessly

And the days are spent breathlessly

And the night's begging for some

Sleep or the endless time alone

In their faces the boys in line

There was fear in their eyes

And they all, we just want to find a

Way home, home, home, home

I can hear the birds, see the light outside, stand up

Like a man and swallow my pride

I can write these words down in a rhyme. They´ve been

Beaten from me by the hands of time

And I don´t know why it´s always this way, and I hang

My head low in the light of day

All I know is I´m tired of being afraid, I got to walk

This road on these bricks I´ve laid

Ah, the trumpets and the marching bands, and the

Thunder claps at the trembling hands

All the people stood up in the stands, and I just felt

So alone

´Cause the halos looked like rusted chains in the light

As we screamed in the dark, I just wanted to find a way

Home, home, home, home

The truth is I´m not brave or sure, I just know I can´t

Live like this no more

I don´t know what I´ve been waiting for, I just know I

Can´t live like this no more

The truth is I´m not brave or sure, I just know I can´t

Live like this no more

I don´t know what I´ve been waiting for, I just know I

Can´t live like this no more

And I don´t know if this road will end at your door, I

Just know I can´t live like this no more

I don´t even know what I`m heading for, I just know I

Can´t live like this no more

I just know I can´t live like this no more

I just know I can't live like this

No more
