Eluveitie - Home lyrics

In these vigilant times I daydream
- an innocuous crime
My motionless stance - in my mind
I wander the land a bleak and dismal trance

Constrained, unsafe, left in shame
And now I can see my town is painted red
Here forever I'll be where once
My tears were shed

On that day
In our place I recall the smell of the rain
And I'd protect you from them if
You want me to take take you there again

Good night my love, let me watch
You sleep from here or above
Words like these won't leave this place
Be haunted by our trace, the trace of our

HOME the home they want call their own
But for the air that I breathe
The dreams are divine
The memories I'll bring to

A place far from home
The home they want to call province of Rome
I'm trapped without guards
Within a state I can't grasp
But we're still free

I am waiting for the clouds to part
All in vain nature forsaken
Once admired by us all
Does it know we're scared
Scared to move, scared to wake
Scared just to be who we were
What matters is just you and me
And the path that leads us

HOME the home they want call their own
But for the air that I breathe
The dreams are divine
The memories I'll bring to

A place far from home
The home they want to call province of Rome
I'm trapped without guards
Within a state I can't grasp
But we are still free

Encircled by fiends, the pressure deepens
Dazed by illusions, my reason weakens
But, I won't let you
Fall into deep forlornness
I won't let you ponder the why in distress
A mechanical smile as I lift
My face towards the sun and return to denial

I weep as I kiss the ground
The trees that I'll soon miss
The songs we sang will ring out
The memories will resound hOME
The home they want call their own
But for the air that I breathe
The dreams are divine
The memories I'll bring to

A place far from home
The home they want to call province of Rome
I'm trapped without guards
Within a state I can't grasp
But we are still free
