The Long Road Home
Janice Marie
I'm staring in the mirror at a face I barely know
Wondering where the woman went that I was years ago
The shadows came and took the light, I let the spirit slide
And there's a heavy weariness I can no longer hide
I've walked through the fire and I've tasted all the ash
Feeling like my whole world was headed for a crash
But even in the middle of this cold and lonely night
I'm looking for the kitchen light to lead me back to right
I'm tired of the secrets, and I'm tired of the pain
I'm standing in the middle of the thunder and the rain
I've lost so many things, but I won't lose my way
I'm reaching for the only love that's gonna make me stay
Because you're the heartbeat that is calling me back home
No matter where the sickness or the shadows let me roam
I'm breaking through the wreckage, I'm tearing down the wall
You're the only mercy that can catch me when I fall
I'm exhausted, yeah, I'm broken, but I'm finally finding home
I'm never gonna leave you again to face this world alone
Yeah, I'm coming back home
Then I see those tiny smiles, and my heart begins to mend
The kind of pure and honest love on which I can depend
Axton, you're the morning Sun that's breaking through the gray
Mason, you're the strength I need to make it through the day
I'm a mama and a nana with a battle left to win
I'm trading in the sorrow for the place where we begin
The road has been a jagged one, and I am worn and thin
But I'm fighting for the family that is written in my skin
It took the pride! It took the peace! It took the house away!
But it can't take the words that I am finally brave to say!
I am a warrior, a fighter, I'm a woman on a mission
I'm breaking every chain and I'm changing my position!
I am tired, but I am still here!
I'm coming home!
Because you're the heartbeat that is calling me back home
No matter where the sickness or the shadows let me roam
I'm breaking through the wreckage, I'm tearing down the wall
You're the only mercy that can catch me when I fall
I'm exhausted, yeah I'm broken, but I'm finally finding home
I'm never gonna leave you again to face this world alone
I'm so tired
But I'm finally walking through the door
I'm home
I love you more than life
This is for my world
