I climb the marble stairs that lead away   Away from everything I used to know   I try to keep my eyes down on the way   The way my mother told me not to go      Well all I ever wanted was   A hand to hold me down   To keep the sky from swallowing me up   And all I ever needed was someone to come around   And tell me that I’ve suffered long enough      So take me away   Find me a home   I'm on my way   I'm on my way      I wonder when I’ll see the stars again   I thought that they had faded long ago   With every step I’m closer to the end   I'm climbing 'cause I don't know where to go      Well all I ever wanted was   A place to store my faith   I thought that I could keep it locked away   It burns my eyes to look at him   And see the truth inside   And so I turn my broken face away      So take me away   Find me a home   I'm on my way   I'm on my way      I always dreamed of Sundays together with you   Only your echoes can break my heart   I need a hand to hold me, to keep me on land   I fear I’m drifting too far apart      Well all I ever wanted was   A hand to hold me down   To keep the sky from swallowing me up   And all I ever needed was someone to come around   And tell me that I’ve suffered long enough      Oh, take me away   Find me a home   I'm on my way   I'm on my way      I'm on my way   On my way   I'm on my way   And now I’m gone   I'm gone   I'm on my way
