Trying to bring me home
In a canteen made of bones, at last
Freedom from the war
To leave this field and slip into more
Dig a deeper hole
And lose myself behind a mask
The golden cup can't fill me up
I'll take from you what I gave up
Escape this, evade this trance
Persuade your fellow man
To take it back what's mine
It's mine, my mind, this time you might find
You know that I want it
I'm prayin' for a bullet to bless my soul
Ain't gonna tryin to hide it
I'm prayin' that you're willin' to let me go
A mothers left a widow, nobody's home
A fool to guess, but I think he's gone
Sinking down, but
I'll hide away my tongue
A new safe space I find
One in which I'm free to lie
This razor's soft and kind
And blankets over broken minds
It seems he feels it too
The rope bound round his neck
Behind his eyes, between his ears he fears
His thoughts obscure the moon tonight
Escape this, evade this trance
Persuade your fellow man
Nothing left to hide
It's mine, my mind, this time you might find
You know that I want it
I'm prayin' for a bullet to bless my soul
Ain't gonna tryin to hide it
I'm prayin' that you're willin' to let me go
A mothers left a widow, nobody's home
A fool to guess, but I think he's gone
Sinking down, but
I'll hide away my tongue
You know that I want it
I'm prayin' for a bullet to bless my soul
Ain't gonna tryin to hide it
I'm prayin' that you're willin' to let me go
A mothers left a widow, nobody's home
A fool to guess, but I think he's gone
Sinking down, but
I'll hide away my tongue
