Home II

A song of truth & beauty for you

In the bigger scheme of things
We haven’t been around here
More than a moment

And yet / too many / it seems
Believe / we are creating a brand new world
Around us
We are creating a brand new world
Without us

Maybe it really is OK
Although we’re digging our own graves
At this moment

If we should all just disappear
The skies and waters will clear
In a world without us

And there’s no place like home
There’s no place like home
There’s no place like home
To return to

We push against the rest of life
As if we can survive without the world
Around us

Can’t have a rainbow without the rain
Can’t have a payday without the pain
Can’t have a lover / walk out without the love
Leaving with them.

There’s no place like home
No place like home
To return to

And there’s no place like home
There’s no place like home
There’s no place like home
To return to
(repeat x2)
