Thränenkind — Homeruiner lyrics

Lyrics

Nowhere at home. Always on the run.
I set fire to every house in every town.
All the places that offered me warmth burnt down.
No safety for me. A shelter I have none.
I am always running. Never looking back.
I just smell fire no matter how hard i try to breathe fresh air.
Maybe I will find the strength one day, to leave my past behind.
To break free. To run towards the sun.
But maybe I won’t have to walk so many miles.
Maybe I just need to stop running away and open my eyes.
One day I will be welcomed home — by nothing but ruins.
Just withered shades, burnt down long ago.
No smoke will be polluting the air.
But frail green seeds will come up among the ashes everywhere.
