Today the wars have ended
and I am changed forever on
I've stopped the bleeding from my head
and held my hands up high

the older me is at my feet
he screams for some attention
he speaks of how I used to be
untouched, out there, alone

this is my homeland
a place in the sun
you are my homeland

since you've occoured
since you've been here
my demons have stopped breathing
their voices echo in my lungs
yet I don't need to scream

I can't believe we're standing here
and I don't need my shields up high
I want the risk, I want to dare
I am afraid no more

this is my homeland
a place in the sun
you are my homeland
my place in the sun
you are my homeland
my place in the sun
you are my homela
