lyrics

And you know there’s no return
To the place that we as children burned
The riches at stake
For the lies we make
This house still stands on the hill
Waiting for you to make it a home
The land has changed 
Does hope remain?

I can’t understand why I am doomed
I fear the worst, my heart’s about to burst
As your image grows dimmer everyday with time

Seas are rising in the dark
As the sun is winding down to rest
But I sit here and fear
Your presence still lingers dear
Fire raging all around
Father’s closed the trapdoor above
The ashes and smoke
Fill my lungs and I choke

I can’t control what fortune is due
You abuse or I lose
Your kindness is an excuse to forget what’s mine
I’ll never know why I needed you
A hole in black has taken its place
And there’s no remaining trace of the life left behind

This house still stands on the hill
Waiting for you to make your home
