Here's a new one I wrote this summer. It's the title track for a new song album I'm working on. As with "Black Moon," I'm going to post each song one at a time and then release them as an album once they're all recorded. Here are the lyrics:

Flying Home

I'll stand in the rain till I stand in the mud.
I'll wash all the wounds clear of the blood.
There's so many stories I need to forget.
I'm ready to leave here, not to die yet.

I could go anyplace, I can go anytime.
I'm not here to write reasons that make your life rhyme.
This is my road I'm walking, this might be my last day.
If you're not here to help, don't stand in my way.

I've seen that highway.
I don't know where it goes,
But any road I take
Won't be a mistake.
We're all just flying home.

I might cry when I'm leaving, I might cry for someone.
I might mourn for what once was never got done.
But there'll be no more tears when I cross that line
Cause there's no broken dream that can't be left behind.

And when I go, there'll be one thing I want to say,
"I'm not mad at anybody, there's no one I hate.
I wish everyone well, I wish them good luck.
Just got to stop spinning my wheels before I get stuck."

I've seen that highway.
I don't know where it goes,
But any road I take
Won't be a mistake.
We're all just flying home.

And there'll be no more darkness from then on,
Just night all around me, clear and strong.
There'll be no more doubt, corrupting as rust.
I'll leave it behind me, dead in the dust.

Everyone looks for freedom in their own way.
Seems some get it easy, some have to pay.
But you're always as free as you know that you are.
It's as close as your heart, it just seems so damn far.

I've seen that highway.
I don't know where it goes,
But any road I take
Won't be a mistake.
We're all just flying home.

We've all seen that highway
And we don't know where it goes,
But any road you take
Won't be a mistake.
We're all just flying home.

We're all just flying home.
