The Waveries - Far Away from Home

Far away
So far away
Far away from home
How did we come to this
Lonely cross in the road

Far away
So far away
We can't go on alone
Together we can find a way
Find a way back home

Somehow we got disconnected
Sterilized and disinfected
Digitized and misdirected
Far away from home

Used the power of our minds
To shape the Earth to our designs
But seen through narcissistic eyes
Found ourselves alone

And every action that we take
Affects another in our wake
And every life we desecrate
Swirls the currents of our fate

This Planet Earth we claim to own
Is home to more than man alone
And every life together forms
The smile upon her face

But now her life's in jeopardy
And unknown to humanity
We've become a casualty
Of our mercenary ways

And every action that we take
Affects another in our wake
And every life we desecrate
Swirls the currents of our fate

So far away
We're so far away from home
So far away from home

We won't make it alone
Together we will take this journey home

Time to tear down all the fences
Of unintended consequences
Time to lower our defenses
And let our egos fall

Reconnect and stay alive
Protect the others, help them thrive
And if we share we will survive
Together one and all

And every action that we take
Affects another in our wake
And every life we consecrate
Calms the currents of our fate

So far away
We're so far away from home
So far away from home

We won't make it alone
Together we will take this journey home

Wake up people, take a stand
Politicians o'er the land
Cast off those cold and callous hands
That steer our ship from grace

Mother Earth will be our guide
And help us home on healing tides
And there with open arms abides
To welcome back our race

And every action that we take
Affects another in our wake
And every life we consecrate
Calms the currents of our fate

So far away
We're so far away from home
So far away from home

We won't make it alone
Together we will take this journey
Together we will take this journey
Together we will take this journey home
