Way Back Home Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Gonna need some more gold
Workin' as hard as I can to build it
My next gilded cage with my own two hands
I've made some mistakes
I'm gonna make some more, but I'm clear
They brought me here, a world worthy of making 'em for
[Hook]
I've taken off my armor
Already cut to the bone
The prodigal daughter on her way back home
[Verse 2]
Burn the maps to this place
I don't need one anyway
I can find you by charting the lines to every smile on your glorious face
The past is behind me
Always there to remind me
To haunt me, scare me, taunt me, and dare me to jump back [?]
[Hook]
I've taken off my armor
Already cut to the bone
The prodigal daughter on her way back home
Gonna need some more gold
Workin' as hard as I can to build it
My next gilded cage with my own two hands
I've made some mistakes
I'm gonna make some more, but I'm clear
They brought me here, a world worthy of making 'em for
[Hook]
I've taken off my armor
Already cut to the bone
The prodigal daughter on her way back home
[Verse 2]
Burn the maps to this place
I don't need one anyway
I can find you by charting the lines to every smile on your glorious face
The past is behind me
Always there to remind me
To haunt me, scare me, taunt me, and dare me to jump back [?]
[Hook]
I've taken off my armor
Already cut to the bone
The prodigal daughter on her way back home
[Bridge]
I'm alive and wide awake
Better that my heart should break than forget how to feel
So here's to chance and something real
I belly up and they ask, "Girl, what do you have?"
Take one and double up
Drown myself in the beautiful struggle of
A life well lived and love worth burning
And a big heart to give to the one fiery soul who can handle my burning
[Hook]
I've taken off my armor
Already cut to the bone
The prodigal daughter on her way back home
Way back home
[Outro]
Gonna need some more gold
Workin' as hard as I can
I'm alive and wide awake
Better that my heart should break than forget how to feel
So here's to chance and something real
I belly up and they ask, "Girl, what do you have?"
Take one and double up
Drown myself in the beautiful struggle of
A life well lived and love worth burning
And a big heart to give to the one fiery soul who can handle my burning
[Hook]
I've taken off my armor
Already cut to the bone
The prodigal daughter on her way back home
Way back home
[Outro]
Gonna need some more gold
Workin' as hard as I can
