A Year Gone Missing
A year gone missing when I came back from the ranks, They asked where I’d been; I just stared at the drinks. Nearly wore a number, nearly vanished in code, Saw rooms go quiet where the cold wind blows. Now a siren cuts through and I don’t even flinch, Another name, another face, another date on a list. They say, “You’re all right,” I say, “Yeah, I’m fine,” But the man in the mirror keeps losing time. I know every exit, every lock, every lie, Can’t tell my own people what’s keeping me alive. I’ve got a fury I can’t put down, A mouth full of silence when I get back around. I love you all more than I know how to show, I keep trying to be home, but the work won’t let go. I’m there in the doorway, still miles away, I’m fighting for my family in the worst kind of way. Death got ordinary; that’s the part that feels wrong, Like a cracked kitchen clock ticking all night long. I learned to shut the door on the ache in my chest, Then I bring that locked room home and call it rest. You save me a plate; I come in too late, Your hand on my shoulder, me watching the gate. I’d trade every medal, every close-call tale, For one Sunday morning with the curtains pulled pale. I can read a threat in the set of a jaw, But I miss what you need when you’re asking for more. I’ve got a fury I can’t put down, A mouth full of silence when I get back around. I love you all more than I know how to show, I keep trying to be home, but the work won’t let go. I’m there in the doorway, still miles away, I’m fighting for my family in the worst kind of way. If I sit at the table, don’t ask me to shine, Just leave me a place and a little more time. I’m not made of stone, I’ve just learned how to hide, There’s a pulse under armour; there’s a man still inside. I’ve got a fury I can’t put down, But I’ll lay it aside when I’m safe with you now. I love you all more than I know how to show, I’m learning that staying is a way not to go. I’m here in the doorway; I’m coming inside, I’m fighting for my family, with nothing to hide. A year gone missing; I’m still finding my way. Keep a place at the table. I’m coming home today.

Текст песни
[Куплет 1] A year gone missing when I came back from the ranks, They asked where I’d been; I just stared at the drinks. Nearly wore a number, nearly vanished in code, Saw rooms go quiet where the cold wind blows. Now a siren cuts through and I don’t even flinch, Another name, another face, another date on a list. They say, “You’re all right,” I say, “Yeah, I’m fine,” But the man in the mirror keeps losing time. [Предприпев] I know every exit, every lock, every lie, Can’t tell my own people what’s keeping me alive. [Припев] I’ve got a fury I can’t put down, A mouth full of silence when I get back around. I love you all more than I know how to show, I keep trying to be home, but the work won’t let go. I’m there in the doorway, still miles away, I’m fighting for my family in the worst kind of way. [Куплет 2] Death got ordinary; that’s the part that feels wrong, Like a cracked kitchen clock ticking all night long. I learned to shut the door on the ache in my chest, Then I bring that locked room home and call it rest. You save me a plate; I come in too late, Your hand on my shoulder, me watching the gate. I’d trade every medal, every close-call tale, For one Sunday morning with the curtains pulled pale. [Предприпев] I can read a threat in the set of a jaw, But I miss what you need when you’re asking for more. [Припев] I’ve got a fury I can’t put down, A mouth full of silence when I get back around. I love you all more than I know how to show, I keep trying to be home, but the work won’t let go. I’m there in the doorway, still miles away, I’m fighting for my family in the worst kind of way. [Бридж] If I sit at the table, don’t ask me to shine, Just leave me a place and a little more time. I’m not made of stone, I’ve just learned how to hide, There’s a pulse under armour; there’s a man still inside. [Финальный припев] I’ve got a fury I can’t put down, But I’ll lay it aside when I’m safe with you now. I love you all more than I know how to show, I’m learning that staying is a way not to go. I’m here in the doorway; I’m coming inside, I’m fighting for my family, with nothing to hide. [Аутро] A year gone missing; I’m still finding my way. Keep a place at the table. I’m coming home today.
