My Way Home

The beauty of a living thing is not the atoms that go into it
But the mystery that they were put together

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

I know my way back home resides in you alone
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

I know my way back home resides in you alone
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
(The battle's starting, the fight begins; with bravery, now he's running in
He doesn't fight to kill, just to defend)

I know my way back home resides in you alone
And distant lights make it clearer
I'm searching for the morning star

The war is over, the fighting ends, his bravery did not bend
I don't wanna fight, but sometimes I do. I don't wanna fight
Singing one last hymn
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
