Back Home to You
Buck D.D. Black Lyrics

I look around I see that time ain't changed
Despite the passage of time, things remain the same.

Same old faces, Same old names
The people and places are still familiar and unchanged.

All the things we thought we knew
Our assumptions and beliefs have been proven false.

You lied to me and I lied to you
Both parties were dishonest in the past.

(Now) All this time
Despite the duration of time that has passed...

You never sympathize
...you never showed empathy or understanding.

I can't find my way back inside
I feel disconnected and lost.

What you give is what you get
The reciprocity principle applies to our relationship.

But you drew the line on me baby
You set a limit or boundary in our relationship.

Tears falling free but you can't see (child)
I am emotional, but you are not aware or understanding of it.

I'm just a touch away baby
I am physically close and would like to be comforted.

The pain blew in like a hurricane
Emotional pain came on suddenly and powerfully.

Stranger in this town bearing your name
I feel like an outsider carrying reminders of you everywhere.

Trapped in the silence with my memories
I am stuck in a quiet place with thoughts of the past.

It's cutting me deep and its tellin' me
The pain is affecting me in a profound way and sending me a message.

Going nowhere and I'm headed there fast and I don't mean maybe
I am stagnant and losing momentum quickly without a doubt.

The light is getting low and my touch is growing cold
My hope and physical presence are diminishing.

Oh just hold me baby
I desire physical comfort and emotional support.

Show me the road back home
Help me find my way back to a place of comfort and familiarity.

Tell me where am I now (oh-o) Why, where and how
I am lost and seeking answers about my current state and direction.

Show me the road back home, back home
Guide me back to a place of familiarity and comfort.
