Hiraeth - Devotion

Why am I still afraid about the things they say

About every little piece that’s not right with me

I am who I am but that’s the one they hate

I am a stranger, outlier, just another pariah

I have lost my pride

I’m just another kind

Another life with its demons in its mind

I always tried to keep strong, but where did I go wrong?

Where is my home, where do I belong?

Where did I go wrong?

I’ve been part of an everlasting concern

Of that i thought it would never end

But in my ever-changing attitude and judgements

The wind shifts it’s directions again

And my sun seems to lose its last glare

Beyond horizons of endless view

There is still no place for my longing

No place for my cure

Why am I still afraid about the things they say

About every little piece that’s not right with me

I am who I am but that’s the one they hate

I am a stranger, outlier, just another pariah

I have lost my pride

I’m just another kind

Another life with its demons in its mind

I always tried to keep strong, but where did I go wrong?

Where is my home, where do I belong?

I want to return but I don’t know where I’m from

And when there proverbs are right I have neither heart nor home

Your voice, another reason to stay

This place, another reason to fade

I walked for days and nights I climbed and crawled these miles

And as I walked my path departure finds its way

As my time goes by I came to realize

Between these waters and stones I have lost what was home

Where did I go wrong?

Where do I belong?

Should I keep my hopes down low?

This is the safest way to go
