away from home - mc hamsa lyrics
[verse 1]
fifteen years old, waking up and he’s cold
under a blanket that’s too small and full of holes
pulls his nose out from under the covers where he’s been crying
all night, missing his mother and just wishing he’d die
hiding behind a high, that’s his way to escape
nowhere to go, parents kicked him out of their place
’cause he was different. n0body knew why he didn’t listen
they just sent him away, now he’s alone on christmas
[chorus]
away from home, no matter where he goes
many doors could be open, but that one just stays closed
away from home, the fact is that he chose this
to see if anybody would notice
that he’s away from home, no matter where he goes
many doors could be open, but that one just stays closed
away from home, the fact is that he chose this
to see if anybody would notice
that he’s away from home
away from home
he’s away from home
away from home
[verse 2]
ten years later and he’s in the hole
trying to provide for his habit and his life on his own
he’s been fighting against madness, but these pills they prescribe him
cost too much without insurance. can’t afford to buy them
between release dates. maybe he hates these walls a little less
than the evils of a life addicted to meth
slightly different stress; he fights, wishing for friends
lights out, he can cry now. jail for christmas again
[chorus]
away from home, no matter where he goes
many doors could be open, but that one just stays closed
away from home, the fact is that he chose this
to see if anybody would notice
that he’s away from home, no matter where he goes
many doors could be open, but that one just stays closed
away from home, the fact is that he chose this
to see if anybody would notice
that he’s away from home
away from home
he’s away from home
away from home
[instrumental break]
[verse 3]
seven days later and it’s a new year
he wants to go to heaven, what the h-ll’s he supposed to do here?
felt the fear of losing for so long, he lost it
tears are not stopping; broken, calling out to god and saying
father, if you send your son to die up on that cross
so that i could have salvation for my sins, come up off it
the life i’m living’s toxic; it’s the only one i’ve known
i’m waiting for you to show me how to make it home
[alt chorus]
away from home, no matter where he went
jesus opened the door of freedom for him when he repented
away from home, but not for much longer
all it took was him surrendering his life to the father
away from home, no matter where he went
jesus opened the door of freedom for him when he repented
away from home, but not for much longer
all it took was him laying his life down on the altar
away from home, no matter where he went
jesus opened the door of freedom for him when he repented
away from home, but not for much longer
all it took was him surrendering his life to the father
away from home, no matter where he went
jesus opened the door of freedom for him when he repented
away from home, but not for much longer
all it took was him laying his life down on the altar
til he’s taken home
