Going Home Lyrics


Thunder in the engines

Echoes in the sand

Pressing ever onward

Through this unforgiving land

Race the crawling shadows

Past the canyon walls

Crossing dunes of fire

As they rise and fall

The waning sun is burning low

Dying in a violet glow

In the twilight the first stars come alive

I’m going home

I'm going home

World left behind me

Fading with the sun

Toward black horizons

Still I carry on

Greed and fear their nature

They kill each other here

Cold hands and cruel hearts

So I disappear

Wheel of the cosmos turns above

Long distant gods from beyond

This wicked planet has forsaken me

I'm going home

I'm going home

I'm going home

I'm going home

Not of this world

No place for me

I must go

I will be free

Engines on fire

Facing the sky

Time has come

Sweet peace of mind

I bought the ticket

I took the ride

Now I see

No one gets out alive

The rising moon is hanging low

Over hills casts a pale glow

Dead sands in the still of the night

I’m going home

I'm going home

I’m going home

I’m going home
