On Our Way Back Home

When the truth is drowned, in a sea of lies
And the tides of hatred on the rise
With an open heart, and an open mind
We choose to cast our fears aside
In the dread of night, when a fierce wind howls
And the wolves come gather at the door
See the windows smashed, all the portals crashed
And our hopes lie shattered on the floor
So, won’t you come with me? I’ll take your hand
And together we’ll leave this troubled land
Oh, we’re on our way, on our way
We’re on our way, back home
Many breaths we waste, abandon dreams in haste
For the mountains stand always too high
Broken hearts in vain, sorrow’s achin’ pain
Feel the tears like stones fall from our eyes
The path ours to choose, the game win or lose
To the fountain of life, wishes are tossed
Fate rides on the wind, wheels of fortune spin
Yet still so many rivers to cross
So, wont you come with me? I’ll take your hand
As we flee their castles made of sand
Now, we’re on our way, on our way
We’re on our way, back home
We’ll set a course by the North Star
Lean our backs to the wind
There’s a setting sun that needs chasin’
New lives begin
All the cards are drawn, and the die is cast
Let us stand in the power of our dreams
For, when the bow is raised, in the devil’s hand
Know the tune plays always as it seems
So, won’t you come with me? I’ll take your hand
Oh, the truth lies far beyond their command
Now, we’re on our way, on our way
We’re on our way, back home
Oh, we’re on our way, on our way
We’re on our way, back home
