I DON'T LIVE THERE ANYMORE

I had a dream once

We were picking fruits

Just green and red

All around

It was like as if

Heaven was our playground

And then, there was blood

Gunshots in my head

That deafening sound

What have we found?

I wonder now

What have we lost

What have we found?

Home

It haunts me in my dream

But I don’t live there anymore

Not that I care so much

Because I don’t really live anymore.

Home

It throbs in my heart and head

But I don’t live there anymore

Not that I care so much

Because I don’t really live anymore.

Father locked the gates

But he never looked back

And the orchards said goodbye

The skies wept

Years have passed

And yet, we can’t accept

We don’t belong there

We don’t belong here either

We belong to past perfect

What have we found?

I wonder now

What have we lost

What have we found?

Home

It stalks me in my dream

But I don’t live there anymore

Not that I care so much

Because I don’t really live anymore.

Home

It throbs in my heart and head

But I don’t live there anymore

Not that I care so much

Because I don’t really live anymore.
