Homeland

Today the wars have ended

And I am changed forever on

I've stopped the bleeding from my head

And held my hands up high

The older me is at my feet

He screams for some attention

He speaks of how I used to be

Untouched, out there, alone

This is my homeland

A place in the sun

You are my homeland

Since you've occurred

Since you've been here

My demons have stopped breathing

Their voices echo in my lungs

Yet I don't need to scream

I can't believe we're standing here

And I don't need my shields up high

I want the risk, I want to dare

I am afraid no more

This is my homeland

A place in the sun

You are my homeland

My place in the sun

You are my homeland

My place in the sun

You are my homeland
