Tracing Back Roots

Eight years ago I committed a sin

And there were many more that followed with

Some that changed my mind

Some that broke me down

But all of them made me who I am now

All of them made me who I am now

All of them made me who I am now

I lived in the bliss of ignorance

And slowly sank into self-doubt

I had to answer my own questions

As I attempted to crawl out

After these years on the road

Was this really my home?

Why do I feel so alone?

In my chest there's a hole

Why do I feel so alone?

Why do I feel so alone?

In my chest there's a hole

I've tried to keep it full

But there's a break in the hull

Depression floods like frozen water's cold

Is this life drowning me?

I am a ship lost out at sea

Eight years ago I admitted a dream

To chase it I had to give up everything

But the things I've learned and the things I've found

All of them made me who I am now

All of them made me who I am now

After years on the road

It was never my home (never my home)

After years on the road

It was never my home (never my home)

My home is in the words you sing

Every letter of the notes you bring

Every story you tell of feeling alive

When you hear these words

And you change your life

You change your mind, the way you think

These words last forever on your skin in ink

(Oooh, oooh)

My home is in your heart
