Home Stretch Mark [Verse 1] Nervous tick tock Home stretch mark Receding tide Simple pleasures Of the flesh Decaying signals No one knows How this story ends ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] Go towards the light At the end of the tunnel Was it all for nothing Or was the big guy Really keeping score? ⸻ [Chorus] I’ve lived long enough Enough to become comfortable With the outcome Whatever it is ⸻ [Verse 2] I’m no good with Putting names with faces I keep finding myself In unfamiliar places I’ve become Unrecognizable even To myself ⸻ [Pre-Chorus 2] Watching my friends Face consequences That used to belong To our parents It comes on slowly Then suddenly One day it’s over Finally over the hill You find yourself sitting in a room Full of old people ⸻ [Bridge] Needle drop Living dead All the stops in between Wide awake In my dreams Forever Or just a flash In the pan What’s a lifetime Have to do with eternity? ⸻ [Outro] Mystery Or certainty… It arrives Without guarantees.
