Take Me Back Home

Every step we take is the hard way 
We try to build an empire all in just one day 
But if we take a breath, and take a look around 
Are we missing things, are both feet planted on the ground 

Sometimes we forget who we are 
We take our chances much too far 
Can I find the time to show this heart of mine (a little sunshine in the rain) 
Oh, it's so hard to see, what we've grown to be 
We fight this world alone, yeah, and turn a life to stone 

[Chorus]
Take me back home, the place where we belong 
Where all our hearts still roam, now take me back home 

The grass is always green on the other side 
We climb the walls to find out to ourselves we lied 

Oh we fight so hard to make a stand 
We try and fit the world in the palms of our hands 
Oh we're searching for a piece of mind 
But the world has put money in your hands and made us blind 

Will I reach the light, that leads me through my life 
(Sometimes I hear the angels sing) 
Will I find the road, to ease my heavy load 
Make the right turn, yeah, not to crash and burn 

[Chorus] 

Yeah I still can remember, how we used to be 
Just a couple of little crazy kids, runnin' through the streets 
Now I can't change the future, I can only feel the pain 
I'm holding on, breath by breath, hiding from the rain 

[Chorus: x2]
