A song for my heart this week.....

i don't want to leave here, i don't want to stay..... it feels like pinching to me, either way. and the places i long for the most are the places where i've been...they are calling out to me like a long lost friend.

it's not about losing faith...it's not about trust

it's all about comfortable, when you move so much....

and the place i was wasn't perfect, but i had found a way to live

and it wasn't milk or honey...but then, neither is this.

i've been painting pictures of egypt...leaving out what it lacks

the future feels so hard, and i wanna go back....

but the places that used to fit me, cannot hold the things i've learned

and those roads were closed off to me, while my back was turned....

the past is so tangible...i know it by heart...familiar things are never easy to discard

and i was dying for some freedom...but now i hesitate to go

i am caught between the promise and the things i know

i've been painting pictures of egypt...leaving out what it lacks

the future feels so hard, and i wanna go back.....

but the places that used to fit me, cannot hold the things i've learned

and those roads were closed off to me, while my back was turned

oh...those roads were closed off to me, while my back was turned....

if it comes too quick, i may not appreciate it.... is that the reason behind all this time and sand?

if it comes too quick, i may not recognize it.... is that the reason behind all this time and sand?
