The American Life lyrics : "Coming home"

Leaning my head against
Your own bedroom door again
I listen for lost deep undertones

Of my fathers voice so loud
It keeps calling out


I'm pulling out your dresser drawer
And opening the closet door
Hoping to catch that familiar scent

That used to keep me safe at night

I could scream but you'd never hear me


Searching for truth inside it all
Whoa, where did you go that night?

I'll catch a glimpse of you sometimes
Whoa, where did you go to?


Thinking back to the past
While searching through photographs
I scatter these old memories

Painting all of the harder scenes
In the hardest dreams
Knowing you were always right

And wishing for that last goodbye
You may be gone now but I know
That you still keep me safe at night


I have cried and broken to pieces


Searching for truth inside it all
Whoa, where did you go that night?
I'll catch a glimpse of you sometimes

Whoa, where did you go to?
Searching for truth inside it all
Whoa, Whoa, Oh, Oh

I'll catch a glimpse of you sometimes
Whoa, I'll always remember


We take for granted all this time
We live a life we call a lie
It's not the answer

It's not the answer

We take for granted all this time

We live a life we call a lie
It's not the answer
It's not the answer


Searching for truth inside it all
Whoa, where did you go that night?

I'll catch a glimpse of you sometimes
Whoa, where did you go to?
Searching for truth inside it all

Whoa, Whoa, Oh, Oh
I'll catch a glimpse of you sometimes
Whoa, I'll always remember


We take for granted all this time
We live a life we call a lie

It's not the answer
It's not the answer
