Return Home

The Legacy Inferno 1: Guardian
2.) Return Home

THIS IS IT!

BROKEN DREAMS, AND BARREN HOPES!
SHELTER ME, FROM WHAT I KNOW!
NOW I'M LOST IN BROKEN DREAMS!
LEFT TO DIE, TORN AT THE SEEMS!
WHY MUST THIS COME TO HAUNT ME!?
I GAVE UP ON HIM, I'M FREE!
WE THOUGHT YOU LEFT US ALONE!
BUT NOW YOU HAVE, RETURN HOME!

These memories haunt me.
They have gone out of tune.
I have no memory.
Of the life I once knew.

THIS IS IT!

YOU HAVE BUILT OUR FAULT LINES!
PAINTED A TRAIL OF SORROW!
NOW WE SEARCH FOR A SIGN!
TO GUIDE US THROUGH TOMORROW!
NOW THIS IS IT!

(Solo)

This nightmare seems so real.
I'm not sure what I feel.
BUT THE DAY YOU RETURNED, I CRIED!
AS I TRIED TO ACCEPT YOUR LIFE!
AND HOW YOU NEVER FELT REMORSE!
WHEN YOU UP, AND WALKED OUT THAT DOOR!
WE LEARNED TO LIVE WITHOUT YOU!
AS WE BUILT OUR LIVES ON FALSE TRUTH!

THIS IS IT!

These memories haunt me.
They have gone out of tune.
I have no memory.
Of the life I once knew.

WHY MUST OUR LIFE BE A MISTAKE!?
WHY MUST WE IGNORE OUR OWN FATE!?
BECAUSE YOU NEVER LEARNED!
AFTER YOU GOT WHAT YOU DISERVED!
YOU WERE KICKED ASIDE LIKE A FOOL!
THAT HAD TO USE US LIKE A TOOL!
WE THOUGHT YOU LEFT US ALONE!
BUT NOW YOU HAVE, RETURN HOME!

These memories haunt me.
They have gone out of tune.
I have no memory.
Of the life I once knew.
NOW THIS IS IT, HE'S COME HOME!

  1. man oh man. i TOTALLY got the feel for the first paragraph especially. it was like i could hear a guy singing it in my head. when you make something that real for someone, ya gotta know it's good.

    i like the line "they have gone out of tune"--it's a new perspective...thinking of memories being able to turn out off tune in our minds instead of just blurred or fuzzy. you use good words uniquely :) i like it.
