Lyrics:
Hey old man
Where did your father go
Did he grow old in his time
Or did you just let him go
He was baptised by fire
Now he's just waiting for the snow
Hanging onto what he's got
Trying to take it slow
I know you have time
Don't you pass it up
Balancing on wires
Waiting for the sun to come up
There were lights in those houses
Now they're boarded up
A warm retreat for a family
Now they're just crumbling down - to dust
Their voices linger
As I wander through the street
If these walls could listen
What stories would they keep
What is life if you don't continue to grow
Self-medication to build your comfort zone
I know you have time
Don't you pass it up
Balancing on wires
Waiting for the sun to come up
There were lights in those houses
Now they're boarded up
A warm retreat for a family
Now they're just crumbling down
To dust, woah oh-oh-oh.
I can't make it on my own
One day we'll find the pieces that make us whole
Our roots run deep once we've grown
Soon enough we'll call this house a home
This feels like home,
Feels like home, feels like home, woah
Feels like home, feels like home
Oh this feels like home,
Feels like home, feels like home, woah
Feels like home, feels like home
