The ground is full of broken stones
The last leaf has fallen
I have nowhere to turn now
Nor east nor west, north or south
And all that's ahead of me
Everything I know
I know nothing so
So bring me home

Put me on a plate with petals and a fire
And send me out to sea
Turn my angry sword against my heart
And let me free

The dawn holds
The heaviness of the night
I've heard the restless sighs and lover's lies
The brook, the beach and seen the devil's eyes
So bring me home

I've cried for the lives I've lost
Like a child in need of love
Oh and I've been so close but far away from God
My tears flow like a child's in need of love
I've cried the tears
So let the tide take me, I won't fight
I've cried the tears

The small step I need to take is a mountain
Stretched out like a lazy dog
Send me to slaughter
Lay me on the railway line, I'm far away from God
My tears flow like a child's in need of love
I've cried the tears
So build the fire, light the flame
Bring me home
