Way Back

Took a turn
in the dark
Lost the map
missed the mark
Held the pain
like a friend
Hoped the fall
would somehow end

Love ran out
job went cold
Family ties
got too old
Glass too full
words too sharp
Night too long
for one heart

Way back
I wanna find
the way back
To peace of mind

Way back
Where dreams don’t break
Where hands don’t shake
I want the way back

Said some things
I regret
Burned some bridges
still get wet
Tried to run
but stayed the same
Smiled through
so much shame

Used to pray
then just slept
Told myself
I had nothing left
But somewhere deep
beneath the fear
A quiet voice
still calls me near

Way back
I wanna find
the way back
To who I am

Way back
Where love won’t fade
Where nights don’t weigh
I want the way back

Don’t need fast
Don’t need more
I need a light
behind the door
Just one sign
to understand
That I can still
come back again

Way back
Not all is lost
There’s still a track
Through pain and cost
Way back
Where truth begins
Where hope still wins
Way back
I wanna find
the way back

To who I am
the way back
To peace of mind
the way back
To open arms
To truth and trust
