The Invisible Parade - Tom DeLonge

All laid over

This pain will drown out the sun

Mother, I’m coming home

But the war has just begun

All the boys will await the arising tide

On a pier with a traveled gun

I like the adrenaline, it’s like a fucking drug

Mother, I’m coming home

I’ve discovered dreams that speak in tongues

Mother, my mind it runs

Cause the war has just begun

Every night I can hear the approaching high

In a hole but I fear I’d run

I’ve got a thing for the edge of a life to come undone

Mother, I’m coming home

(Ooh-ooh, la-da-da…)

Old and tired

Scarred and bruised to the bone

Mother, I’m coming home

And the war has just been won

All my friends can await the big ships to arrive

But I’d rather not join the fun

I need a minute to maybe soak in the sight

Of a town that I came from
