Mercy Valley - home before dark

I'm sorry I've been acting like I got no time
I don't know when things started to feel not mine
Feels like I've been running for a while
But I can't tell you why I ran the first mile
And I try to retrace all my steps
Try to figure out just when I left
And every time I am bereft
I'm sick of leaving messages unread
Of making lists of things I should have said
Of lying about where I lay my head
Of all the sparks I had that have gone dead
And I try to retrace all my steps
Try to figure out just when I left
And every time I am bereft
Stumbling around like you don't know what you are
When is your life gonna start?
Don't you worry about me
I'll be home sooner than you think
Just leave a light on when you go to sleep
Somewhere lost along the way
Got easier to hide than it was to stay
If I'm busy enough I'll keep it all at bay
Forget how to feel maybe the hurt will fade
And I try to retrace all my steps
Try to figure out just when I left
And every time I am bereft
Now I'm fighting back to where I started
Thought that I was weak wanted to discard it
Too naive, too starry eyed, too big hearted
But that shit's rebellion in a world that hardens
And I try to retrace all my steps
Try to figure out just when I left
And every time I am bereft
Stumbling around like you don't know what you are
When is your life gonna start?
Don't you worry about me
It's nothing that I haven't beat
Just leave a light on when you go to sleep
I'll be home
I'll be home
You'll forget I ever was gone
