When you gonna come down from all these endless affectations
Chained to the wall just like a victim of desire
Holding out for a change of heart or a change in disposition
Counting all your blessings as they thread down to the wire
Its just a letter from a friend
Lost in a maelstrom
You could call it a position to defend
But is it a place to call home
Level every mountain for some sense of recognition
Lost in the valley but you thought you’d see it through
I don’t want to hold your hand through another one of your vacations
Painted every pictures in the brightest shade of blue
Its just a letter from a friend
Lost in a maelstrom
You could call it a position to defend
But is it a place to call home
You could call it a position to defend
But is it a place to call home
