[Verse 1]
Alone in the dark my hearts the only sound
All my good time friends left town
It was Gold thru my fingers, I veered off track
I can see it so clearly but I can’t go back
Im a vapor in the wind, pushing toward the one
I had a map to plot it out but it wilted in the sun
Past the bright lights, burning up the fuel of night
So empty as my eyes focus on the morning light
It was fun while it lasted, lived fast and faded
Pleasure turned pain can leave a good heart jaded
Sunbeams turned rain, I’m getting off this train
Another night to kill the pain, living hard in a charade
I just want to go home, but it’s a weight on my back
I’ve burned too many bridges, I can’t go back
Empty pockets, hollow sockets with arms all tracked
I wish it was all different but I just can’t go back (& that’s that)
[Hook]
My child, where are you?
I've had so many sleepless nights
I don’t know where you are I think you've gone to far
You need to come and see the light
No matter how many bad moves that you've made
And you think you can’t go back
I still love you, arms are wide open
Come home, we’ll get you back on track, back on track
[Verse 2]
I looked you in your eyes, heard the words you said
But I just wanted what I wanted and I wished that you were dead
I left you at the window, to follow where the wind blow
Danced with the devil as I heard your tears & door close
So cold, I could feel the ice in my veins
But in my head I heard the words you said, it still remains
My son all I have yours, these are deadly pathways
Please don’t go, come back, I love you always
And I wonder if it’s still stands, want to touch my father’s hands
Sure ground can’t be found I’m sinking in these quick sands
Mercy is a pipe dream, your faded words I can’t see
If I did to me what I did to you I couldn't even forgive me
So much to see I wonder if your lights still on
Do you still think about me? I’ve been gone so long
I'm sitting rock bottom your love’s what I lack
This place is just a wasteland, I want to go back
[Hook]
My child, where are you?
I've had so many sleepless nights
I don’t know where you are I think you've gone to far
You need to come and see the light
No matter how many bad moves that you've made
And you think you can’t go back
I still love you, arms are wide open
Come home, we’ll get you back on track, back on track
[Bridge]
Come Home, Come Home
If you were offered the world would you take it?
If given it all would claim it?
Gotta let go, let him save my soul
It's all gonna fade away
I need you to come home
[Verse 3]
Looking back at it, I don’t know why I waited
I was so blinded by the mess that I created
And fear was a factor as I walked up the road
Thought about how bad I hurt you, the lies I told
My Soul worn thinner than the base of these shoes
But I was lost in the world nothing left to lose
Made my way to the house afraid of your wrath
Thought about rejection as I walked up the path
But he ran to me, hugged me and held me so tight
Whispered in my ear my son I hope that you’re alright
His warm tears fell from his face down to mine
A glorious moment that existed out of time
I was dead to the world with my soul pitch black
But now mercy is mine, I could always go back
No matter what you've done, no matter where you’re at
Don’t hesitate , turn around you can go back
[Hook]
My child, where are you?
I've had so many sleepless nights
I don’t know where you are I think you've gone to far
You need to come and see the light
No matter how many bad moves that you've made
And you think you can’t go back
I still love you, arms are wide open
Come home, we’ll get you back on track, back on track
