We're all out here treading water Looking for a liferaft out But there's something in the ocean, that leads a lonely boy to doubt Well I've got so many questions, they all keep me up at night I am a traveller on this broken highway home There are people living in these streets have nothing to give There is suffering all around us, people struggling to live Yes I've prayed for love and kindness, for to ease a wayward soul There is nothing more than love, love rules all Searchlight, searchlight, guide me home tonight I'm tired and I don't want to fight I've got nothing to give I've been looking for an answer its been taking me to task I will always be a searcher in this life They are fighting for equality, they are fighting for their skin Some don't have no education, some they lean on religion Still they tuck their children in at night and kiss upon their brow As they dream a new existence for themselves Searchlight, searchlight, guide me home tonight I'm tired and I don't want to fight I've got nothing to give You can try to heal a nation but these wounds are running deep It's like nothing that we've ever seen before Well I've been following these highways through the heart of your civil wars It will always lead to loosing, like it always did before Like it did to West Virginia, like it did in Birmingham We are standing on the brink of some dark shore Searchlight, searchlight, guide me home tonight I'm tired and I don't want to fight I've got nothing to give It's so goddam overwhelming to watch this all go down I wish for nothing more than peace in my time I wish for nothing more than peace in my time
