"Light Of A Pinhole"

Home feels so far away
Doesn't feel like it has a name
Or even has a place
Yet I know I'll be there someday
Not by the things that I've accomplished
They could never pave the way

So I hold up my head
Choose the longer road instead
Hope running beneath it
Like an undercurrent

[chorus]
And I will see the light
I'll see the light here in this life
It's burning in my soul
Through the light of a pinhole
And I will fight the fight
I'll stay the course until I die
I won't let go
Until I see the picture whole

Home is a better place
I'll rest no treasures in this wasteland
Plant no roses over graves
No embellishment could change the face
When all crowns are dust and gold is rust
Just figments that will fade

And I won't hold my breath
Or wait 'til the world stops dealing death
When I know life exists
It's running like an undercurrent

[chorus]
And I will see the light
I'll see the light here in this life
It's burning in my soul
Through the light of a pinhole
And I will fight the fight
I'll stay the course until I die
I won't let go
Until I see the picture whole

Like a fire, it's burning away
Tearing down the lies in a flood of flames
All the places I've accepted
All the hope that I've rejected
All my days
Will never look the same

I'll never be the same
I'll never be the same

[chorus]
