"Guide Us Home" lyrics

Light the fire tonight
Our bones are tired and bruised, but it's warming
To sit in silence with brightened eyes as we start anew
Maybe this is our chance to
Tip the scales and play the gods
We know that we all never will be
Change the world, defy the odds
For we owe what cannot be repaid
And there's no stopping our minds
From spinning over again
All that matters is we keep moving

Oh God, we've tried to overcome the pain
But all that's left for now
Is to face the lives that lie beyond us
Don't say no
We will run till the sun won't guide us
Don't say no
We will run till the sun won't guide us home

Instead of mending the scars, you cut right over them
Can you tell me
If life's not worth it to start
Why don't we start accepting the people we're dying to be?
Hell's become a part of me
When you look at yourself, do you look through me?
Hell's become a part of me
When you look at yourself, do you look through me?
Hell's become a part of me
When you look at yourself, do you look through me?
Hell's become a part of me
When you look at yourself, do you look at me?

Born of the bred
We had no way of choosing our existence
Don't "save" us
Like we're unworthy of your forgiveness
Don't "save" us
Like we're unworthy of your forgiveness

God, we've tried to overcome the pain
But all that's left for now
Is to face the lives that lie beyond us
Don't say no
We will run till the sun won't guide us
Don't say no
We will run till the sun won't guide us home

Another match to add to the flame
Another backed up memory
Of what you'll never be to me
Of what you'll never be to me
Is it a testament to your grace
When all the love left still remains?
It's such a shame you had to leave
I would've loved to meet you here
