Someone told me lately time is killing you
Me I'm killing time till I find something to make me follow through
On the decisions and revisions of a life lived in the margins
Like notations of a plan I'm working on

Homeward bound, you won't be homeward bound anymore
Bound for home, I should be bound for home but I'm not sure

Where does that leave me? Arguing with unreliable memories
You always sound so sure when you recall how it used to be
All the things you left behind, the perfect pictures in your mind
Now you no longer get to see if they're still true

Homeward bound, you won't be homeward bound anymore
Bound for home, I should be bound for home but I'm not sure

If I dig deep down through the cold, cold ground
I would find myself back in my hometown
Singing farewell songs as the sun goes down
And reckon all the wrongs back into rhyme
Lessons gifted to us all by vanished time

Homeward bound, though you're not homeward bound anymore
Bound for home, I am bound for home I'm pretty sure
Bound for home, turning bound for home to make amends
Bound for home, we're all bound for home in the end
