Come Home To You

There's a mad little kid at the top of the stairs And his eyes they gather no light And his mom and his dad they're too high to care As his cries drift off in the night And I've been that kid yeah it's true And I've been both of those parents too I'm ashamed when I've lost my way But I'd do anything just to come home to you It's the twilight captures the sorrow of time In between the life and the lived I press on through the darkness so thoroughly blind To a light the new morning gives And it sparkles like each new tomorrow I drank up my last yesterday Tasted sweet joy and bittersweet sorrow But I'd do anything just to come home to you There's a meanness inside and it shivers my bones That's the thing about mercy I guess There's no man so wicked he cannot come home Nor so good he passes each test
