From Nowhere To Home - The Foreigners

I feel it coming on, something is changing us And when the sun goes down, we've got nowhere to run Into the night when the shadows in my head come out to play Not gonna fight 'cause I know that there is no way to escape Black out the sun, I've come undone, my thoughts are racing They're out for blood, can't get enough, can't get enough I see what I'm becoming, it's a part of me now Pacing, I can't shake this I tell myself it's nothing, but I know deep down No matter what I do, it's gonna find a way out I feel it coming on, something is changing us And when the sun goes down, we've got nowhere to run I feel it coming on, the dark before the dawn And when the sun goes down, we've got nowhere to run Paralyzed by the creatures that are creeping in my mind And I won't hide 'cause I know they're gonna find me every time Black out the sun, I've come undone, my thoughts are racing They're out for blood, can't get enough, can't get enough I see what I'm becoming, it's a part of me now Caving, I can't take this I'm trying not to hold it 'cause I know deep down No matter what I do, it's gonna find a way out I feel it coming on, something is changing us And when the sun goes down, we've got nowhere to run I feel it coming on, the dark before the dawn And when the sun goes down, we've got nowhere to run I tell myself it's nothing, but I know deep down No matter what I do, it's gonna find a way out I feel it coming on, something is changing us And when the sun goes down, we've got nowhere to run I feel it coming on, the dark before the dawn And when the sun goes down, we've got nowhere to run We've got nowhere to run

Like an empty bottle washed up by the waves Like an old scooter slippin' slowly to it's grave Like ghosts of old sailors caught somewhere in time Like a lone palm, watch the world unwind Nowhere to go and nowhere to be Trinidad Charlie on a stool next to me Readin' his book 'bout the have and have-nots In between chapters we take another shot And one by one we slide from reality With nowhere to go, and nowhere to be There's jerk chicken grillin' on the grill Sure feels good for some time to be still Even if it's only for a little while Sight of the sails in the wind makes me smile Days turn into night When you're stuck in still life And you got nowhere to go and nowhere to be Trinidad Charlie on a stool next to me Readin' his book 'bout the have and have-nots In between chapters we take another shot And one by one we slide from reality With nowhere to go, and no where to be

Twenty-six years and seems like I've just begun To understand my My intimate is no one When the director sold the show, who Bought its last rites? They cut the cast, the music and the lights This is my line, this is eternal How did I ever end up here? Discarnate, preternatural My prayers to disappear Absent of grace, marked as infernal Ungranted in dead time left me disowned To this nature so unnatural I remain alone Twenty-six years end, still speaking in these tongues Such revelations, while understood by no one When the new actor stole the show, who Questioned his grace? Please clear this house of ill-acquired taste This is my line, this is eternal How did I ever end up here? Discarnate, preternatural My prayers to disappear Absent of grace, marked as infernal Ungranted in dead time and left me disowned To this nature so unnatural I remain alone Give me Something Give me Something Give me Something Give me Something Give me Something Give me Something real I lay strewn Across the floor Can't solve This puzzle Everyday, another small piece Can be found Oh I lay strewn Across the floor Pieced up In sorrow The pieces are lost, the pieces don't fit Pieced together incomplete And empty This is my line, this is eternal How did I ever end up here? Discarnate, preternatural My prayers to disappear Absent of grace, marked as infernal Ungranted in dead time and left me disowned In this nature so unnatural I remain alone This is my line, this is eternal How did I End up here? Discarnate, preternatural My prayers to disappear Absent of grace, marked as infernal Ungranted in dead time and left me disowned To this nature so unnatural I remain alone

I lay awake and look at the ceiling and wonder why I'm so afraid to face all these feelings and wanna die I'm out of place and nothing's appealing to stay alive Why try to face it when it's so easy to say goodbye? It's all unfolding, it's so controlling It tries to pull me under, nothing's going right for me This tension's growing, it tries to hold me Hear me scream I'm taking over With my back to the ropes, I'm never letting go I'm moving closer Everything that I know is feeling farther from home I'm never giving in This world I'm living in is losing color I'm taking over With my back to the ropes, I'm never letting go I try to make the changes, it's so hard to sway my mind There is no way to make it but to leave these scars behind Within my thoughts are racing, I'm too far away at times I drive myself insane, it's tearing me apart inside It's all unfolding, it's so controlling It tries to pull me under, nothing's going right for me This tension's growing, it tries to hold me Hear me scream I'm taking over With my back to the ropes, I'm never letting go I'm moving closer Everything that I know is feeling farther from home I'm never giving in This world I'm living in is losing color I'm taking over With my back to the ropes, I'm never letting go I take a deep breath down inside I shake and try to breathe, but I Hate the way that I lived my life And it seems All the lies that I try to hide Remind me of what I left behind Unwinding thoughts inside my mind Hear me scream I'm screaming out loud It's all just weighing on me It's all just weighing on me I'm reaching out I'm screaming out loud I'm taking over With my back to the ropes, I'm never letting go I'm moving closer Everything that I know is feeling farther from home I'm never giving in This world I'm living in is losing color I'm taking over With my back to the ropes, I'm never letting go I'm never letting go With my back to the ropes, I'm never letting go
