lyrics

When I come back to my house
And I see what I’ve seen here before
I don’t need two legs to stand
I don’t need my feet touching the floor

I don’t need drugs as my fuel
They won’t help me to make up my mind
Pour me a pint, won’t you sir?
This feeling, I left far behind

When I am woke, I can see
A sense of returning for me
I can see, through these clouds
You were my friend
The candle flame burning for me

I was never the one to believe
I was never the one to pull cards
The Empress of all that remains
Reflecting herself in the shards

Built my faith from a tower of glass
This path it was always alone
Oh, the heart that was full
This song it was never my own

When I am woke, I can see
A sense of returning for me
I can see, through these clouds
You were my own
The heart ever yearning for me

Oh, to wait at the broken gate
The fractured plight of the few
After the bomb, will God pick up his cards?
To begin the game once anew

Is it chance, this Eleusinian dance
Freedom, yet sought from the fire
I’ve seen the mists and I’ve suffered no fools
There ships lost so deep in the mire

When I am woke, I can see
A sense of returning for me
I can see, through these clouds
You were my kin
The world wasn’t turning for me
I guess it’s time to begin
