lyrics

Where do I begin?
Where will I end up?
When all my talls tales are told
And sad songs are all sung
In two-thousand-and-twelve
Everything fell through
As things do
Whilst three sheets to the wind
I fell in two

Now I'm stuck inside my head
And out of my mind
Always searching for an edge
I can define
Both a mere means to an end
And something divine
Then again, who can pretend
To draw the line?

Now each day that goes by
I walk a fine line
Between losing myself
And seeking what none find
But each now and again
Something will break through
That rings true
So pray nearing the end
That they still do

All the while I look for ways
To bridge the divide
Father Time watches each grain
Sharpen his scythe
Though this ship is set to sink
I can't help but try
To pull it back from the brink
Before I die

Will Death turn the glass?
Or draw lines in the sand?
And wave me goodbye
With each move of a hand

Last the first and first the last
As the future comes to pass

Each hour that you while away
Comes again another day

Sinking sand and falling rain
Makes it hard to concentrate

Once again the hands return
Back in place after a turn

All things will come to divide
Only then to reunite

Rivers flow into the sea
Becoming what they once had been

All this time I've spent alone
Waiting for the words:
'Welcome Home'
