I want you to come home
I'm tired of being alone
And it's making me sick
Not knowing if you're safe and alrightThe kids are growing up so fast
And knowing you're missing them and theyre missing you
Has given me a pain so deep inside
Stemming from this world and this warLately I feel like I've been becoming someone else
Someone I don't recognize
And someone I don't even likeI need you here to help me remember
What it's like to truly be alive
Everyday I try my best to not get
Completely overwhelmed with you being gonePlease tell me how to be strong
Because everyday I am so worried I could lose you
There are so many things going on
So many things I want to share with youI'm selfish for wanting you home I know
But I really cant help it, I need you, we need you
I love you completely
I just want you to come homeOnly a year or so they said
You wont miss out on anything
Save me from, free me from despair
I just want you to come home
When the world's really deadI lay at night
Thinking of you and the kids
Trying to put this into perspective
And understand the worldSo much is happening in my life
And I cant seem to put a finger on who I am
And these are the times I wonder what I was thinking
I mean, what the hell was I thinking?Everyone says we're heroes but I feel like I've abandoned you
I could feel the blood racing through my body
And know that I'm growing distant from the worldOnly a year or so they said
You wont miss out on anything
Save me from, free me from despair
And know that I'm growing distant from the world
When the world's really deadThe wait is over, stuck inside this mess
Dying to hold, you're all on your own
Praying to get out alive
Alive, praying to get out alive
Alive, praying to get out alive
