Where… where has it gone, all that used to belong?
I let the wind take it all away, and cried the whole day.
A storm ruined my whole life, dusk to dawn I’ve felt the strife.
Not my fault the way it is, stolen from me was all my bliss.
Not my time to go back home and think, watch all my blood fill the sink.

I’m not worth the second chance. Looking at me on first glance,
You would agree that I am gone, back to the place I belong.
When the sun will come up I’ll go up in flames, cast down with all the lies and blames.

The dark and the old mix into my air, lost again and you know it’s not fair.
Just trying to make my way back home, tired of the endless roam.
So goodbye, goodbye, never coming back again; goodbye, goodbye, I’ll leave you the pain.
I’ll walk out and then never turn around, you won’t see me back in this place, underground.

The worst is yet to leave, or so I want to believe.
The other side of all sorrow… I want some happiness but there’s none to borrow.
My story doesn’t have an end, ’cause I’m still lost my friend.
So take me back to the place I once knew, where the sky was blue,
To the rustle of the wind and to no more storms, to the place between your arms that feels warm.

Hell hasn’t seen anything like this, the fires hiss and the whole world’s amiss.
I just want my freedom, and no more lies…
The trails and tears in between, I’ve shown what it all seems to mean.
So come and help me home, to the place I belong.
No more wandering astray; make it right now, night and day.
Lead me home and show me the place where I belong…
