I don't recognize this place anymore A cold wind blew in when I closed the shutter We held the world in broken glass Obsessed with madness What a life we had back there Time makes loneliness of the years Did you know you can't go home again? So climb out of the basement you're hiding in Put out your cigarette and walk home from the apartment There is a world outside these walls and it's changing beyond our grasp Your father's gone and not a God like we once thought While your mother is face down on the sidewalk You inherit the habit that kicked her mind to the gutter And the rain floods in where the drought began To teach us that every home we'll ever know is broken And you'll be drenched to the bone when you fail to outrun it They slam the back doors and turn the keys These roofs are levees that no longer contain the rage The walls caved and families gave in Those dented walls mark domestic insanity I went the same way, fell over your boots in the back room, wondering: If there's an antidote, prepared for a life without purpose, peace, or hope But we found hope, we found vision despite miles of paved blank pavement There is a world outside these walls so unhinge your heart and let us go Your sons and daughters are free to search this out on their own We're where we need to be. Just let us go. Every home we've ever known is brokenTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
