I left my home at a tender young age and I walked away
I left my country but I held onto rage when I walked away
And I never returned, with the lessons I learned, but I found a new peace in my heart
I came to this place with a pain in my heart when I walked away
Left behind a life that had torn me apart when I walked away
And I never returned, with the lessons I learned, but I found a new peace in my heart
And I know that even this joy can suddenly end
But I’ll carry on as my own best friend
I’ll never lose this path to my soul unless I walk away
I found a feeling that is making me whole and here I’ll stay
And I finally returned, with the lessons I learned, when I found a new peace in my heart
