One Amazin' Kid – Homecoming lyrics

it is hardest to rise
from graves you make yourself
what brought you this position
spent and lying on the ground
when yesterday you stood tall
we fall so fast
stripped away of life's denial
until the only thing alive
is burning itself inside our hands
returning a single flame
into the lonely sun
you've been close enough to mercy
to feel her scars
so many things are given up
with compassion on your lips
as, gracefully, you crash down
pour yourself out
in front of everyone
in front of everything that holds you back
you're shimmering
yours is not a soul to hide
so let it all out
we fall so fast
stripping away all that collides
until the only thing alive
is building itself a legacy
returning a single flame
into the lonely sun
