My Way Home - Close Your Eyes

The beauty of a living thing

Is not the atoms

That go into it

But the mystery

That they were put together

Woah!

Teach him to hate

To hate not for himself

But for the ones he sees around

For the women and children, the helpless, the broken

And his country burning down

The seas are rough

His tension’s high

So start the storm and watch him die

And let it ride

Let it ride

'til it all falls down and there’s nothing left

Woah!

I know my way back home

Resides in you alone

Woah!

And distant lights make it clearer

I’m searching for the morning star

Teach him to fear

A fear of the unknown

A fear of going there alone

Until he thinks he can’t take it

He’ll bend and he’ll break

And as a coward he will roam

'cos I don’t wanna fight

But sometimes I do

I’m practically dragging the elephant into the room

Is this more than you were prepared to commit to?

The seas are rough

His tension’s high

So start the storm and watch him die

And let it ride

Let it ride

'til it all falls down and there’s nothing left

Woah!

I know my way back home

Resides in you alone

Woah!

And distant lights make it clearer

I’m searching for the morning star

The beauty of a living thing

Is not the atoms

That go into it

But the mystery

That they were put together

The beauty of a living thing

Is not the atoms

That go into it

But the mystery

That they were put together

The beauty of a living thing

Is not the atoms

That go into it

But the mystery

That they were put together

I know my way back home

Resides in you alone

Woah!

And distant lights make it clearer

I’m searching for the morning star

(The war is over the fighting ends his bravery)

'cos I don’t wanna fight

But sometimes I do

I don’t wanna fight

Let’s start again

Let’s start again

Let’s start again

Let’s start again

Let’s start again

Let’s start again

Let’s start again

Let’s start again

Let’s start again
