Scene Six: Home Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro 00:00-02:38]

[Verse 1: The Sleeper]
Shine, lake of fire!
Lines take me higher
My mind drips desire
Confined and overtired


[Pre-Chorus: The Sleeper]
Living this charade
Is getting me nowhere
I can't shake this charade
The city's cold blood calls me home
Home, it's what I long for
Back home where I belong!

[Chorus: The Sleeper]
The city, it calls to me!
Decadent scenes from my memory
Sorrow, eternity
My demons are coming to drown me
Help, I'm falling, I'm crawling
I can't keep away from its clutch
Can't have it, this habit

It's calling me back to my home
[Instrumental Break 07:23-10:23]
[Keyboard Solo]
[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus: Nicholas]
Her story, it holds the key
Unlocking dreams from my memory

Solving this mystery
Is everything that is a part of me
Help, regression, obsession
Can't keep away from its clutch
Leave no doubt, to find out
It's calling me back to my home

[Instrumental Outro]
