Dashboard Confessional - Slow Decay lyrics

Your rating:

Stand down son, start resting easy
You've done your service, I am proud to have you home 
And see you safe, it's so good
You look so strong in that picture on the mantle 
You sent your mom when you were gone
But you look scared now, hollow eyed

When are you coming
When are you coming back where you belong
I swear that it's safe here, there's nothing to fear at all
Come on back where you belong
The pressure releases if you just let down your guard

Everything rests on you
You know that feeling well, the ball is falling
Falling, falling, so far from a close call
Your injuries aren't mortal wounds
The only thing that's killing you is what you saw
And what you couldn't stop
Well, you're not the one I blame, it wasn't your mistake

But you're safe now, so come home
Back where you belong
I swear that it's safe here, there's nothing to fear at all
Come on back where you belong,
The pressure releases if you just let down your guard

It's the simple things dad, I'm not hurt, I'm not dead
I just should be where my friends are lying
And I didn't hate those that I killed but they're all dead now
But I'm here alive with satellites and Friday nights
And no one to judge me or the things that I've done and all
So how can I live with that?

Back where I belong
Back where I belong
Back where I belong
Back where I belong
Take me back where I belong 
You swear that it's safe here
There's nothing to fear at all
Take me back where I belong, the pressure releases
If I just let down my guard
