[Intro]Yesterday I spent asleep,woke up in my clothes in a dirty heapSpent the night trying to make a deadlineSqueezing complicated lives into a simple headlineI have your face in an old polaroidTidying the children's clothes and toysYou're smiling back at me, I took the photo from the fridgeCan't remember what then we didI haven't been with a woman it feels, like, for yearsThought of you the whole time, your salty tearsThis shitty world sometimes produces a roseThe scent of it lingers but then it just goesReturn the call to homeThe worst of us are a long, drawn out confessionThe best of us are geniuses of compressionYou say you're not gonna leave the truth aloneI'm here 'cause I don't wanna go homeChild drinking dirty water from the riverbankSoldier brings oranges, he got out from a tankWaiting on the waiter, he's taking a while to comeWatching the sun go down in LebanonReturn the call to home[Solo]Now I got a head like a lit cigaretteUnholy clouds reflecting a minaretYou're so high above me, higher than everyoneWhere are you in the Cedars of Lebanon?[Solo]Choose your enemies carefully 'cause they will define youMake them interesting, 'cause in some ways they will mind youThey're not there in the beginning but when your story endsGonna last with you longer than your friends
