It Takes A Lot To Get Home

lyrics

It takes a lot to get home
But I guess it’s fine
When the light’s always on
« Cheer up »
Echoes on and on
But it’s so hard when everyday
Feels like a permanent night

Worn out of struggling
You know it feels like giving in
Sometimes I feel like giving in
What if this life was about fighting ?
You know it feels like giving in
Sometimes I feel like giving in

And I’m so tired and empty and voiceless

I don’t sleep long but I sleep fast
Even if my body starts winding down
Collecting wounds and stumbling on sights
I’m still searching for a steadier ground
Cause there’s a coldness in every fire I light

Worn out of struggling
You know it feels like giving in
Sometimes I feel like giving in
What if this life was about fighting ?
Sometimes it feels like giving in
You know I won’t be giving in

And I’m so tired and empty and voiceless
