[Intro] (Atmospheric guitars, distant choir pads) [Verse 1] Blind and beset, they stagger to the pale A phantom choir of exile-bound remains They burn the hands that tried to set them free They haunt us still, because they cannot see [Pre-Chorus] I kept a spark beneath my tongue A prayer I never learned to say [Chorus] I’m coming home, home again I shed this skin, I breathe again I fall into you—no more pretend If I break, I break to mend I’m coming home [Verse 2] I’ve yearned for you for far too long to hide I wore my fear like armor for the crowd But quiet cracks don’t stay quiet forever Not when the night keeps pulling at the tether [Bridge] Forsaken—yes, I wore that name Like chains that sang inside my bones If you can hear me through the storm Then pull me close—I’m coming home [Final Chorus] I’m coming home, home again I shed this skin, I breathe again I fall into you—no more pretend If I break, I break to mend I’m coming home [Outro] (Instrumental fade, reverb tail)
