Migratory Patterns

Feathers sprout in my skin
And so it begins
My seasonal flight

I’ll search for warmer lands
Accomplish my plans
When I go one night

I wanna be far from
I wanna be far
I wanna be far from home

Leave my demons behind (and the angels I find)
Although they are kind
Enough to be here

But I need some time alone (far from my lonely home)
And the time has come
For me to be free

I wanna be far from
I wanna be far
I wanna be far from home

I wanna be far from
I wanna be far
I wanna be far from home

‘Cause I have a liking for the road dust
And leaving the people that I mistrust
Recalling my past life with disgust when I must
For as long as I can

Bonfire burns into ash (it burns through my flesh)
And shows me the path
Of the lines in my hand

A sound keeps rattling my bones (notes fly in avian tones)
A romani song
By the caravan

Horizon calls me by name (and I'm never the same)
The Sun hiding its flames
Time to disappear

And I knew for so long (since I left my home)
Dorothy was wrong
There’s no place like here

I wanna be far from
I wanna be far
I wanna be far from home

I wanna be far from
I wanna be far
I wanna be far from home

I wanna be far from
I wanna be far
I wanna be far from home

I wanna be far from
I wanna be far
I wanna be far from home

‘Cause I have a liking for the road dust
And leaving the people that I mistrust
Recalling my past life with disgust when I must
For as long as I can
