Homesick

[Intro]
Homesick to better days
Go

[Verse 1]
The last postcard loses its luster
The last kiss of the sun is no longer felt
Trapped in everyday life
I am caught in the daily grind
Homesick to better days

The city lights burn in the eyes
The noise of the street is an unbearable roar
When the call of the distance becomes a pleading screech
I am homesick to better days

[Chorus]
The void beneath my skin
The smoke I'm brеathing in
Makes me feel like I
Likе I am trapped inside

The void beneath my skin
The emptiness that pulls me in
Dark days, I’m locked inside a cage (in a cage)
Cancerous smoke in my lungs

[Bridge]
Traffic lights yell
In a blurry red
Oxygen running out
This city's choking me
This city's choking me

Traffic lights
Blurry red
Oxygen running out
This city’s choking me
This city's choking me
Oh

[Verse 2]
I feel the hands of sorrow are reaching out for me
They pull me back from the way to my relief
For far too long I've sensed this sickening grip on me
Homesick to better days
Time to close my eyes and travel light
Empty-handed but with open arms
How far must I go to escape reality?
I still am homesick to better days

[Chorus]
The void beneath my skin
The void beneath my skin
The smoke I'm breathing in
Makes me feel like I, like I am trapped inside

The void beneath my skin
The emptiness that pulls me in
Dark days, I'm locked inside a cage (in a cage)
Cancerous smoke in my lungs
Cancerous smoke in my lungs
