lyrics

How will they greet you when you finally come home ?
With your broken hands dirty and your deeds widely known
Will they open their arms to their lost flesh and bone
When you finally, finally, finally come home ?

Will you offer them reasons, some blameless excuse ?
Or will you cry out apologies, deep and profuse ?
Will you sink down in silence, with the weight of your load
When you finally, finally, finally come home ?

Will they ask for the story of how it all crashed,
or will the leave the dead buried and force you to ask
If a seat at their table is worth more than your throne ?
When you finally, finally, finally come home

What if it turns out that you've been forgotten ?
That the flies ate your name when it first went rotten
And your face bears no trace of the boy they'd once known
When you finally. finally, finally come home ?

But what if it turns out, they remember you fine ?
That the words that were spoken ring loud in their minds
And hard as you knock, that old door remains closed ?
When you finally, finally, finally come home.
