Lyrics:

HEADING HOME

Heading home, heading home
They say you can’t go back and I’m gonna try
Stories that are hidden to the naked eye
as ghosts appear and disappear in a flash
The Altered Boys, making noise as they mangle a song by The Clash

Heading home, heading home
Once I walked, today I drive, someday I’ll fly
I dread the day I’m that far away from the place I love
Although my old comrades aren’t around
It’s an empty shell, but it’s just as well or else I’d probably wanna hang around
My home

Heading home, heading home
I tried to find the love that I knew once so long ago
I tried to understand that the time ain’t coming back
And even hair as black as the ace of spades goes gray
Still I catch myself dreaming as I’m careening down Minnehaha Parkway
I can feel my pulse quicken as the plot thickens in my little internal play
Must be out of my mind, stuck in rewind
I can’t be living this way

Heading home, heading home
To the place I can’t even call my own
To the place that brings back all the memories
Of broken dreams, and friends I don’t ever see
Guess I forgot about it, now that I’ve thought about it
There’s one place I don’t want to be
Heading home, heading home
