"Sanctuary" lyrics

"Sanctuary"

What happened to my life?
What happened to my ego?
I left so much behind
Now where do we go?
I've walked the hard road
I've walked the long way
Look at this new land
Far from my family

We're all the same here
(You and I)
We're all the same here
(You and I)

I thank you from my heart
You work for my safety
I've sworn a thousand times
I'd never regret this
But now I feel the sting
I long for my homeland
Never to return
Is more than I can stand

We're all the same here
(You and I)
We're all the same here
(You and I)

Life takes you over the ground
Made real with a vengeance
The only life I've known
Lies burning behind me
It could happen to you tomorrow
Knocks at your door
And press you for the truth
Another day of war

You walked the hard road
You walked the long road
Brothers to the end
Welcome to my home

We're all the same here
(You and I)
We're all the same here
(You and I)
We're all the same here
(You and I)
(You and I, we're all the same here, you and I)
