Sail Me Away

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
When stars are born, are they cast outTo wander cold and lonely lost in space?A loveless point of light that can't returnForever fixed within one placeWhen love is lost and dreams are castLike bruised and battered pieces left to dieWhen hands that reach out are betrayedHow can my tortured soul survive?There's only one thing leftAnd that's the one thing that you needed most of allFor the freedom that you gainedIs the loss that led me aimless to the shoreAnd I'm borne high on these wavesSwept by the wind and aloneOh, sail me away, carry me back to my homeI'm tired, I've been tornA cruel, wretched storm churns like a gale in my bonesOh sail me away, carry me back to my homeThese scars run deepThe future holds a hunger for your innocenceThat passed awayYour callous shadows mockAnd make it clear some thingsWere not enough to make you stayThe moment time stands stillIs the moment that the writing's on the wallThe words are clear as ringing bellsThat pride was present right before the fallAnd I'm borne high on these wavesSwept by the wind and aloneOh, sail me away, carry me back to my homeI'm tired, I've been tornA cruel, wretched storm churns like a gale in my bonesOh sail me away, carry me back to my home
