The Homecoming

Warbreed


[Marek WoŸniak] 
On the verge of losing it all 
At the end of this damn war 
The death roll amounted to thousands 
Yet somehow I have come through 

Now it's just me and my shadow 
And I'm running through the woods 
I can barely stand the excitement 
Five more miles and I'll be home 

I'm coming home 
To stop this nightmare once and for all 
I'm coming home 
Away from this bloody all-out war 

So sadly I still remember 
The death of my brothers in arms 
Four shot down by a sniper 
And the rest I left behind 

But enough with my grim past now 
I think this is my town 
Whatever happened here? 
There's nothing but ashes all around 

How much farther must I go 
To get home and tell my mother that her son is 
Back again where he belongs? 
How many lives must I take before I reach my home? 

I'm coming home 
At least I want to think I am 
I'm coming home 
Let me dream I'm almost home 

Home? 

I've been five years away cloaked in 
darkness night and day, playing to be the 
hero while those bastards played with my kin 

What kind of man abandons his people 
Leaving them all to their fate? 
I swear upon their bodies that I shall mourn them for the rest of my days 

And after that all I've done… 
I am barely still human. 

On the verge of losing it all 
I ended up losing much more 
I'm here all by myself to fight 
My own personal war 

But if there's no one there 
I do not wish to go on 
A dream within a dream 
Is what my life has become 

I'm coming home 
Wherever you are I swear I am 
I'm coming home 
It won't be long 

How much farther must I go 
To get home and tell my mother that her son is 
Back again where he belongs? 
How many lives must I take before I reach my… 

How much farther must I go 
To get home and tell my father that his son is 
Back again where he belongs? 
How many lives must I take before I reach my home?
