No Road Home (Solastalgia)

from The Human Connection by Chaos Divine

lyrics

Been here before, or have I?
Cannot recall
Been here before, but I can’t, see what I’m looking for
There’s nothing left only memories remain
And until the end, I’ll search for my home

Progress haunts my dreams
And I can’t stop this enemy
Forever stalking me
And to the world I’d known, I bid farewell

I am homesick, while at home
And I’ve got nowhere else to go
I reminisce of the last time
That I stood on this sacred ground

Misplaced myself but I’m still here
Never thought that I would fear
Losing my homeland
I’ve lost my sacred ground

Desperate, clutching straws
Distant, at arms throw
Can’t face the new world I’ve come to
Rejecting what is before my eyes

Memories, lost and sold
Deface times of old
I reminisce of the past life
No compensation can compensate me for what
I have lost. I have lost

Grave mound, connections are fragmented
To my own ground
This wound, created for your welfare
Now left unbound

Tear it all down
No you can’t buy this ground
Hold fast, face down
This can’t be undone

This world goes to, the highest bidder
We can only loose, while they desecrate

Grave mound, connections are fragmented
To my own ground
This wound, created for your welfare
Now left unbound

Victim of our lust
No-one we can trust
Were all longing for fortune?
But somebody’s got to pay

Nomad don’t belong
Aimlessly I run
Never return to my past life
A vagabond born by solastalgia
I am lost, I am lost

Have I been here, before?
And I’ll be here, nevermore
