Find Your Way Home |
|
| You broke my bones for throwing stones Help came too late to make my limbs straight So I walk in circles hoping to find The key to your straight lines |
|
| This hungry thirst I cannot quell You poisoned the water that fed my well To survive the years I drank my tears And they couldn’t find their way home |
|
Ghar ki rah naheen paya |
I didn’t find the way home I didn’t find you anywhere When will we sit in the shade Oh shadow of my homeland? |
| You stood and watched, you seemed so cold I bled to death on a dusty road To your driver I was unholy load And I couldn’t find my way home |
|
| You stole my country, you killed my friends Twenty years before me in Her Majesty’s Den But you can’t kill beauty nor frame my soul She will always find her way home |
|
Ghar ke rah…
|
|
| The sword you died by is the sword you live by The sword I die by is the sword you kill by Am I the David to your Goliath Will you ever find your way home? |
|
| I am the mirror lodged in your eye Only by my grace can you see your own face The welling scar that rips your grin The shame you hide to justify the place you’re in The secrets you keep even from yourself That blare like sirens on a night in hell Don’t blank me, don’t thank me, understand this alone Without me you will never find your way home. |
