I want to go home.
But how can I long for a place I've never known?
A place of endless happiness, of peace that feels infinite -
and yet, everywhere I go, there I am.

How can I be the problem
and the solution
all at once?
How do I protect my heart
from the chaos of my mind?
A cruel, relentless storm,
a place where pain never sleeps.

I can't run fast enough.
I can't escape myself.
No matter where I wake,
I'm still here.

How did I get here?
How do I find the way out?
I just want to go home -
whatever that means,
wherever it is.

And maybe in the peace of death I'll find a home...
