I climb the marble stairs that lead away
|
Away from everything I used to know
|
I try to keep my eyes down on the way
|
A way my mother told me not to go
|
|
Well all I wanted was a hand to hold me down
|
To keep the sky from swallowing me up
|
And all I ever needed was someone to come around
|
And tell me that I suffered long enough
|
|
So take me away
|
Find me a home
|
Im on my way
|
Im on my way
|
|
I wonder when I'll see the stars again
|
I thought they had faded long ago
|
With every step Im closer to the end
|
Im climbing cause I don't know where to go
|
|
Well all I ever wanted was a place to store my faith
|
I thought that I could keep it locked away
|
It burns my eyes to look at him
|
And see the truth inside
|
And so Ive turned my broken face away
|
|
So take me away
|
Find me a home
|
Im on my way
|
Im on my way
|
|
I always dreamed of Sundays together with you
|
Only your echos can break my heart
|
I need a hand to hold me
|
To keep me on land
|
I feel i am drifting through _
|
|
Well all I ever wanted was a hand to hold me down
|
To keep the sky from swallowing me up
|
And all I ever needed for someone to come around
|
And tell me that I've suffered long enough
|
|
Take me away
|
Find me a home
|
Im on my way
|
Im on my way
|
Im on my way
|
Im on my way
|
You know Im gone
|
Im gone
|
Im on my way
|
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
|
Yeah yeah oh oh
