Colony House - Where I'm From Lyrics

Where I'm from
Illuminated lanterns glow and never flicker when storm winds blow
The scent of cedar
The taste of citrus on my tongue
The sound of silence all feel like home
I can see it in the eyes of my son and the eyes of my daughter
Where I'm from
Where I'm from
The lost and broken sing along in every language a sacred song
I can hear it in the voice of a mother and the cries of a child
Where I'm from
Where I'm from
Where I'm from
Here I labor on in the holy war
Find myself on the threshing floor
Praying somebody will stay with me
While I remain in between
Looking for light and the breaking of day
Somebody stay with me
Where I'm from
I've stood outside these gates before trying to listen and hear her voice
I can feel it in the middle of the rain in the warmth of a fire
I can feel it when my heart starts to break
I was born to desire
Where I'm from
Where I'm from
Where I'm from
Where I'm from

Where I'm from
Illuminated lanterns glow and never flicker when storm winds blow
The scent of cedar
The taste of citrus on my tongue
The sound of silence all feel like home
I can see it in the eyes of my son and the eyes of my daughter
Where I'm from
Where I'm from
The lost and broken sing along in every language a sacred song
I can hear it in the voice of a mother and the cries of a child
Where I'm from
Where I'm from
Where I'm from
Here I labor on in the holy war
Find myself on the threshing floor
Praying somebody will stay with me
While I remain in between
Looking for light and the breaking of day
Somebody stay with me
Where I'm from
I've stood outside these gates before trying to listen and hear her voice
I can feel it in the middle of the rain in the warmth of a fire
I can feel it when my heart starts to break
I was born to desire
Where I'm from
Where I'm from
Where I'm from
Where I'm from
