 I  had a way  then losing  it all  on my own
 I had a heart  then but  the queen has been overthrown
 And I'm not  sleeping now  the dark  is too hard to  beat
 And I'm not  keeping now  the strength  I need to  push me
 You show  the lights that stop  me turn to stone
 You shine  It when I'm alone
 And so I tell  myself that I'll  be strong
 And dreaming  when they're gone
 'Cause they're calling,  calling, calling me  home
Calling,  calling, calling  home
 You show the lights  that stop me turn  to stone
 You shine  It when I'm alone
Noises,  I  play within  my head
 Touch my own  skin and hope  that I'm still breathing
 And I  think back to when  my brother  and my sister  slept
in  an unlocked place  the  only time I feel  safe
 You show the  lights that stop me  turn to stone
 You shine  It when I'm  alone
 And so I tell  myself that I'll  be strong
 And dreaming  when they're  gone
 'Cause they're calling,  calling, calling me  home
 Calling,  calling, calling home
 You show the lights  that stop me turn  to stone
 You shine  It when I'm alone
Home
 You show the lights  that stop me turn  to stone
 You shine  It when I'm alone
 And so I tell  myself that I'll  be strong
 And dreaming  when they're  gone
 'Cause they're calling,  calling, calling me  home
 Calling,  calling, calling  home
 You show the lights  that stop me turn  to stone
 You shine  It when I'm  alone
