The Return

[Verse 1]
Ever since I was a child
I tried to leave this place
Wherever I roam
Wherever life unfolds
I seem to come back here again
Did I follow my desires
Like a ball and chain?
Tried to exhaust them all
With every rise and fall
But I only fed fire to the flame

[Chorus]
I don't wanna feel the thunder
I don't wanna feel the rain
I take heed of these omens
I don't wanna return the same

[Verse 2]
Must I burn down my hometown
And in ashes start again?
What's lost my friend
To grow, we must transcend
Oh, why did I come here?
Can you tell me what this all means?
There's a God-shaped hole
In every seeker's soul
Lost in the mystery

[Chorus]
I don't wanna feel the thunder
I don't wanna feel the rain
I take heed of these omens
I don't wanna return the same
I just want to believe in something
I don't wanna feel this grey
I take heed of these omens
I heed what the lightning said

[Bridge]
There's a God-shaped hole
In every seeker's soul
Turned cold in rebellion
As life unfolds
Like a quest once told
Love's dance towards the one
There's a God-shaped hole
In every seeker's soul
Turned cold in rebellion
As life unfolds
Like a quest once told
Love's dance towards the one

[Chorus]
I don't wanna feel the thunder
I don't wanna feel the rain
I take heed of these omens
I don't wanna return the same
I just want to believe in something
I don't wanna feel this grey
I take heed of these omens
I heed what the lightning said
