Going Home
Trippy Wicked & the Cosmic Children of the Knight Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Along came a stranger
Telling us tales of a land
Where there's peace there
And before too long
He made us believe in the good
That would come where
We'll feel at home

We're going home

He said it's a new way
I'd sooner you get it wrong than worry
And you'll feel as one
Feel like you belong
You can get there
You'll feel at home

We're going home

And so the day came
A ship to take us away
To the new land
Where we'd feel free
Free to be who we are
In the new world
We're going home

We're going home

Ship we're on is going down
Free at last

Ship we're on is landing now
Free at last
