[Verse 1]

Family, a word that meant so much to me,

This world is one that's taken everything (too late).

The road split open to swallow me (swallow me),

Hoping you'd follow and I'd take the lead.



[Pre-Chorus]

Am I the child who lost his way?

I can't let go of all this hate!



[Chorus]

A broken home,

Heaven is lost and we are nothing,

Please bring me back to brighter days.

I can't help but be myself,

Sorry if I'm nothing but a memory (a memory).

God if you're real, take me back to Hannalei!



[Verse 2]

Out past the break inside the undertow,

I marvel in the light down below (down below).

I've worn this mask long enough,

And we're past the point of hellos (hello).

It's time I sing to those who relate,

Let go of hate!



[Chorus]

A broken home,

Heaven is lost but angels will sing,

Your path with lead to brighter days

I can't help but be myself,

Sorry if I'm nothing but a memory (a memory).

If you're up there, know I'm in a better place.



[Outro]

A broken home,

Heaven is lost and we are nothing,

Please bring me back to brighter days.

I can't help but be myself,

Sorry if I'm nothing but a memory (a memory).

God if you're real, take me back to Hannalei!
