home

 

my heart is looking for a place to live

and joy is hanging on the Life within

fear calls to unfamiliar places

but I would love to stay home

yes, I just want to stay home

 

I cast a glance at all the things that promise me the joy they bring

some to hurt, some to heal

some to come and resurrect me

turning back to what I’ve used to define me

and amuse me

in my hand is emptiness and ashes

for a peace that passes …

 

I love You

You, You love me, too

sometimes I go on my own

sometimes I want to be alone

but hey, I love coming home

I said, hey, I love coming home

 

so rest,

lay it all down beside me

laugh

at all the things we put ourselves through

with hope we brag on all the things we would do

but I just want to stay home

yes, I would love to stay home

 

shouting out a need to live the greater life I feel within

hiding in the corner here – Jesus come and resurrect me !

think a bit on what I’ve learned

and look around at what I’ve earned

I’ve filled my house with emptiness and ashes

for a piece of passion …

 

I love You

You, You love me, too

sometimes I go on my own

sometimes I want to be alone

but hey, I love coming home

I said, hey, I love coming home

 

So rest, lay it on down beside me

Let’s laugh at all the things we put ourselves through

With hope we brag on all the things we would do

But I would love to stay home

Yes I just want to stay home
