A Voice from Home

A Voice From Home

In a beat-up car she headed west for California
Running from and running to… everything
A brand new start
but what she didn’t know is that everywhere you always start with you

And the angels in LA all have dirty wings
on the hungry streets down Melrose
and with every step and every heartbeat
you’re feeling further and further from home

Voices from home
A voice from home
Wherever you go I will be close
I will be there for you on the radio, on the radio
So you won’t feel alone

Making her way turning tricks by night, and sleeping all day
In a Vampire haze
And her family cried loudly “Oh, where has our daughter gone?”,
But they only watched her fade

and the Devil’s whispering in your ear
You belong here, you belong here
Like a Siren calling your heart’s ship in to a deep blue, amphetamine end

And I know I closed my heart to you
Just when you (desperately) needed a friend
From the eye of the storm now I scream to you
Over your hurricane winds

A voice from home
Voices from home
Wherever you go I will be close
I will be there for you on the radio
On the radio so you won’t feel alone

And the Sun comes out and somehow you’ve made it
I can’t believe you’re still alive
When the hope ran out, so you faked it
I know it makes you smile
you’ve earned your life
you’ve earned those pirate eyes
you’ve earned your life
Take it for a ride

Voices from home
A voice from home
Wherever you go I will be close
I will be there for you on the radio
On the radio a song that you know
And I know that I closed my eyes to you
And I know I did you wrong
And If I could do it all differently I would, but instead I’m sending this song
“A voice from home”
