"Would You Come Home"

I don’t see enough of this moment and its by far one of my favorite in Roswell New Mexico. A great song is at its core pure poetry and this is a great song that captures queer love and the adversity it often has to overcome. 

Roswell New Mexico Season 2 Episode 13

“My father taught me home is where the hurt is So I built a fortress, where I lived alone He said ships were never meant to have a harbor So I've worn this armor, I've fought and flown I was raised a soldier Put my weapons down to hold you Is a kiss an act of war I just tried to keep you warm Even though I couldn't stay No you never looked away Now I can't look away

Would you meet me in the middle Could we both stop keeping score There's a battle I must fight alone It's you I'm fighting for If I call off the battalion Break my walls down stone by stone Tear down my defenses I can build your heart a home And if I did Would you come home

Together we could quiet all the noises Drown out the voices, play our own song Boys becoming men under the desert sky But something dark inside said it was wrong I was raised a soldier Put my weapons down to hold you Is a kiss an act of war I just tried to keep you warm Even though I couldn't stay No you never looked away Now I won't look away

Would you meet me in the middle Could we both stop keeping score There's a battle I must fight alone It's you I'm fighting for If I call off the battalion Break my walls down stone by stone Tear down my defenses I can build your heart a home And if I did Would you come home

I still find my fathers shrapnel Buried beneath my skin But I've begun to heal in all the places your hands have been Would you meet me in the middle Could we both stop keeping score There's a battle I must fight alone It's you I'm fighting for If I call off the battalion Break my walls down stone by stone Tear down my defenses I can build your heart a home And if I did Would you come home

Wish I found the words when we were seventeen You were the best of me You are the best of me “

I don’t remember a day I wasn’t fighting to be somewhere I don’t want to stay.

The young children are like light...

Let's offer them, let's offer them, the power of our words

Let's heal them, let's heal them, from this eternal curse

The young children are born in a sinless world

And we have passed our faults and limits to them

We forced to them to tie themselves to a fate filled of battles

And we haven't been able to keep in mind that each one has to walk it's own way

Let's offer them, let's offer them, the power of our words

Let's heal them, let's heal them, from this eternal curse

Let's protect the children from further misfortunes

Let's untie ourselves from the karma of killing each other

My body will shine with the true light

So my released singing voice can rise to the heavens
