[Verse 1]
This room hasn't made me feel at home
This world hasn't filled me up with hope
This has gone too far, I'm left playing the part I know best
The lion's share I gave to you
Diminished year by year to few
This has gone too far, I've met too many faces to forget
[Chorus (x2)]
For the first time I'll be coming home
Thrown into the ashes, born into the afterglow
[Verse 2]
You've got your powers that be
You've got your mandate and your greed
This has gone too far to take, you know me better than you think
[Chorus (x2)]
For the first time I'll be coming home
Thrown into the ashes, born into the afterglow
[Bridge + Instrumental]
Come out of your head, I guard familiar places
Come over this hurdle, I guard familiar faces too
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh (x4)
[Outro]
I guard familiar places, I guard familiar faces
I guard familiar places, I guard, I guard you
I guard familiar places, I guard familiar faces
I guard you, I guard you
I guard you, I guard you, I guard, I guard
