Marble Steps

I climb the marble stairs that lead away Away from everything I used to know I try to keep my eyes down on the way The way my mother told me not to go Well, all I ever wanted was a hand to hold me down To keep the sky from swallowing me up And all I ever needed was someone to come around And tell me that I’ve suffered long enough So take me away Find me a home I’m on my way I’m on my way…yeah I wonder when I’ll see the stars again I thought that they had faded long ago Another step I’m closer to the end I’m climbing cause I don’t know where to go Well, all I ever wanted was a place to store my faith I thought that I could keep it locked away It burns my eyes to look at him and see the truth inside And so I turned my broken face away So take me away Find me a home I’m on my way I’m on my way…yeah I always dreamed of Sundays, together with you Only your echoes can break my heart I need a hand to hold me, to keep me on there I fear I’m drifting too far apart Well, all I ever wanted was a hand to hold me down To keep the sky from swallowing me up And all I ever needed was someone to come around And tell me that I’ve suffered long enough Oh… take me away Find me a home I’m on my way I’m on my way…yeah I’m on my way…yeah I’m on my way…yeah I’m on my way…yeah You know I’m gone I’m gone I’m on my way…yeah
