Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I shouldn't be here 'cause I should be dead
I can see the lights in front of me
I believe my best days are ahead
I can see the lights in front of me
Oh Jesus, if I'm still your friend
Ah, what the hell, what the hell you got for me?
I gotta get out from under my bed
To see again the lights in front of me
[PreChorus]
Hey, I've been waiting to get home a long time
[Chorus]
Hey now, do you know my name?
Hey now, a-where I'm going?
If I can't get an answer, in your eyes I see it
The lights of home, the lights of home
[Verse 2]
I was born from a screaming sound
I can see the lights in front of me
I thought my head was harder than ground
I can see the lights in front of me
A-one more question, I'll be born again
One more road you can't travel with a friend
Saw a statue of a gold guitar
Bright lights right in front of me
[PreChorus]
Hey, I've been waiting to get home a long time
[Chorus]
Hey now, do you know my name?
Hey now, where I'm going?
If I can't get an answer, in your eyes I see it
The lights of home, then the lights of home
[Chorus]
Hey now, do you know my name?
Hey now, where I'm going?
If I can't get an answer, in your eyes I see it
In your eyes alone, I see the lights of home
[Bridge]
Free yourself to be yourself
If only you could see yourself
If only you could, free yourself to be yourself
If only you could see yourself
If only you could, free yourself to be yourself
If only you could see yourself
If only you could, free yourself to be yourself
If only you could see yourself
If only you could see
