Mother, I'm
coming home to die
Cause everything I found out is a lie
There's no journey
that's too far away
Our time has come for me to drift away from this world,
this city, this town, these people
that I love, this woman and child,
the father and son, the roads that lead to none.
I am leaving for good, so long
Mother, I'm coming home to cry
This home is where I've
never tried to live
I'm always driftin' all about this world,
so blue, ain't no other colors I know
I'm this city, this town,
these people that I love
They have nothing to offer me except
their kindly hearts. I have nothing, no
longing, no space in my heart to love, to care,
to even be aware. I'm never gonna
I feel like I did when I was young
Everything is in vain,
even my love for this world
This city, this town,
this roasted lead of hills
The paths through the bushes
that hold so much to fill
This dirt that grows, this heart that grows
It's long and never known, too long
It's time to end it, it's not worth it
And oh, it al ways seems
too much to love, to care
I'm leaving tomorrow if I can
Water I'm coming home
Water I'm coming
home
Butter, I'm coming home
But ter ,
I'm coming home
