Got To Go
The Marxmen (M.O.P.) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They're speaking to me, trying to pull me in out of the cold
No sign of light in the day and no hand around I can hold
I long for the places my memory wants me to go
Sing me a song for the road and save the last line for me
'Cause I'm only half of the man that you want me to be
It looks like I've got to go, feels like the final scene
I hear your voice once more echo outside my door
You know I'd change all this around now if only I could
But I've got to go home
I used to play all the games, I'd see it out win or lose
But no one's your friend when you walk in another man's shoes
Running around out my head, keeping the pain inside
You found me out and you showed me i don't need to hide
It looks like I've got to go, feels like the final scene
And everything's falling down faster than I thought it would
I hear your voice once more echo outside my door
You know I'd change all this around now if only I could
But I've got to go home, home
Got to go home, home
It looks like I've got to go, it feels like the final scene
And everything's falling down faster than I thought it would
I hear your voice once more echo outside my door
You know I'd change all this around now if only I could
But I've got to go home, I gotta go home
Got to go home, but I've got to go home
