Back Again
Niemand Lyrics

Down the old dusty roads of deliverance
I am on a path to deliverance which is not easy, but I am familiar with this path.

I’m no stranger in these parts
I have been on this journey for a long time and I know the way very well.

Oh, these straights don’t ever look familiar
Although I know the path well, it doesn't always seem familiar to me.

But I find my tracks time and time again
I always find my way back to the path, no matter how difficult it may be.

I’m a man on a mission till the morning comes
I am determined to complete my mission and won't stop until morning comes.

Trying to outrun this darkness
I am trying to escape from the darkness that seems to be following me.

But the shadows stay with me wherever I run
No matter how hard I try, the shadows of the past always follow me.

I might be racing away from the sun
I am running away from the light, hoping to escape from my struggles.

All along the striding edge
I am on the edge of the path and am still far from reaching my destination.

I’m running, I’m running but I’m not there yet
I am making progress, but am not yet close enough to where I want to be.

I’m the red smoky trail on the horizon but then
I am the hazy trail that can be seen in the distance, but am still far from my destination.

I’ll be back again
Although I may be far from my destination, I will always come back and try again.

When the wind in your face feels like a friend
Sometimes, simple things like the wind can feel comforting.

And the open road like home
The open road can feel like home to me, as it gives me a sense of freedom.

There’s no way to find what you’re not looking for
If you're not actively seeking something, you won't find it.

But I find trouble time and time again
Even though I may not be looking for trouble, it seems to find me on this journey.

When a heart closes up like a hopeless book
When someone is hurt or feeling hopeless, they may close themselves off from the world.

And words can find no way
It can be hard to express how you're feeling when you're feeling lost and hopeless.

With a face as dry as a river bed
When one is feeling hopeless, they may feel like they are completely drained and have no more tears left to cry.

Oh, won’t you carry me away?
I am asking for someone to help me escape from the pain and hopelessness I am feeling.

What good use is a horse with a broken back?
What good is something when it is broken and unable to fulfill its purpose?

When he was born to run
When something is born with a purpose, it is important to fulfill that purpose.

If I keep running to the dark, Lord
If I continue to run towards the darkness, I will never escape from it.

I know I’m done
If I don't try to escape from the darkness, it will consume me completely.

Help me run with my face to the sun
I am asking for help to change my mindset and start running towards the light.

All along the striding edge
I remain on the edge of the path, still far away from my destination.

I’m the red smoky trail on the horizon but then
I am the hazy trail that can be seen in the distance, but still far from my destination.

I’ll be back again
Despite the difficulties I may face, I will always come back and try again.
