"My Home, My Grave" lyrics

"My Home, My Grave"

Forced into exile, lost is thy name
Banished to live every day just the same
Cast to the edges, left here all alone
All but forgotten, here I remain
Left here to suffer, no life to reclaim
How does it feel to see your own free world just burn?

Serving my sentence, never to stray
Reaping my judgement, I curse at the day
All that I am, an empty shell of a man

I have lost my way
Here, here I stay
Time, time can't break
Free, free these chains
Rain, washing away
The fading light of a new day
Drowning I stand, clutching the skies
Drenched in the sound of my cries

All that I have
I'm destined to live out my days
Nowhere but here, forever yearn
But I will never return

Waking again, long is the night
Watching forever, I'm blind to the light
Rivers of sadness fall from my eyes

I have lost my way
Here, here I stay
Time, time can't break
Free, free these chains

I swear with all my anger
I repent what I have done
I swear with all my hatred
And I will reclaim what I am

Rain, washing away
The fading light of a new day
Drowning I stand, clutching the skies
Drenched in the sound of my cries

All that I have
I'm destined to live out my days
Nowhere but here, forever yearn
But I will never return
