I got lost out there in this world
Looking for a brand new wave to fall down
It's no surprise that things got worse
And I think God, would never let me drown

But I didn't have to lie to myself for so long
I didn't have to let myself get so far gone
I didn't have to make the ones I love feel so alone
I didn't have to die to go to heaven, I just had to go home

While I was having the time of my life
I think my soul died, a little everyday
I always call to say I'm sorry, you said it's okay
But you should be, through it all you never walked away

But I didn't have to lie to myself for so long
I didn't have to let myself get so far gone
I didn't have to make the ones I love feel so alone
I didn't have to die to go to heaven, I just had to go home

Into the arms of my angel, into the peace I felt behind
All I had to do to save my own life, was to look into your eyes

But I didn't have to lie to myself for so long
I didn't have to let myself get so far gone
I didn't have to make the ones I love feel so alone
I didn't have to die to go to heaven, I just had to go home

But I didn't have to lie to myself for so long 
I just had to go home
