Whistleblower Lyrics

I have been away for way too long
Twice as tall, a hundred times as strong
Winter's over; spring is coming on
Yesterday is smoke and steam and sand
All those demons hold me where I stand
This road could lead me back where I began
If I only knew the way
Are they waiting by the door
Do they wonder where I've gone
Is it my home anymore
Or will I be moving on
I have been away for way too long
I remember whispered words and names
Men in fields and everything in flames
Our mothers feared the men that we became But their sons were on the rise
Are they waiting by the door
Do they wonder where I've gone
Is it my home anymore
Or will I be moving on
I'm a million miles away
And it's hard to see beyond
All the chaos and decay
To the place where I belong
I have been away for way too long
Long before these harsh realities
Violence seemed so far away
Our entire world was water and shade
Now we're paying for mistakes our fathers made
