I don't know where to begin, I don't know where to go, I've got a thousand roads before me And none of them say home. I'm tired of being nowhere, Tired of standing at the door, Wondering if there's somewhere I was meant to belong. I don't need a kingdom, I don't need a throne, I just want somewhere quiet Where I don't feel alone. Somewhere I can breathe again, Somewhere I can stay, Somewhere that doesn't disappear When the darkness finds my name. **I want somewhere to survive, Somewhere I can belong. Somewhere I can lay my head And know I haven't wandered wrong. And there are nights I think about Just giving up the fight, But there's something in me whispering, "Don't disappear tonight."** I've stood outside the window Of the life I thought I'd have, Watching all the people Move ahead while I look back. I wonder if they see me, Or if I'm only passing through, A stranger in a crowded world Trying to remember what to do. I have words I cannot speak, And thoughts I cannot explain. I can laugh until I'm breathless Just to hide another pain. Then the room becomes so quiet, And the laughter disappears, And I'm left alone with everything I've carried all these years. **I want somewhere to survive, Somewhere I can belong. I don't need somebody perfect, I just need somebody strong. And if I say I'm tired, Don't mistake it for goodbye. Sometimes "I can't do this anymore" Just means "stay with me tonight."** Maybe I don't need the answer To every question in my head. Maybe I just need tomorrow Before I judge today as dead. Maybe there's a road I'm missing, Maybe there's a door unseen, Maybe home isn't somewhere waiting— Maybe home is somewhere I can be. So I'll take another morning. I'll take another breath. I'll let tomorrow find me Before I make a choice about the rest. I don't know where I'm going. I don't know what comes next. But I know that while I'm breathing, This story isn't finished yet. **I want somewhere to survive, Somewhere I can belong. Somewhere I can hear a voice say, "You've been looking far too long." And if the darkness tells me That there's nothing left to find, I'll answer with tomorrow— "You're not taking this night."** I don't know where to begin. So I'll begin right here. One breath. One step. One more day. **And maybe that's how you find your way home.**
