Текст песни: Holding on to Home + перевод

Endearing though to me,

many a man has tried to flee

the sordid corners of

this putrid penitentiary,

oh, are you here with me?

Are you here with me, or

am I dreaming of your shackles

loudly dragging through

the hallways of my reverie,

oh, are you here with me?

Farther than a lunar axis,

as far as I know outer space is.

Innovation never takes us

as far as we can be.

What is left for me?

Dimmer than a summer solstice,

north of any blooming roses,

melted water, open faces,

below the winter freeze

the cold paralyzes me.

I’m holding on to home.

Thumbs up for the next ride in,

I’ll go where fuel carries it.

I hope it’s reaching Gulu town.

I’ll meet my friends sometime

around the bend.

The kitchen smells of memories,

and there beside the quarterlies

are photos of my family, but

some of them are missing me, and

I am missing them right back.

I’m holding on to home.

There is nothing captivating

on this road that we are roaming.

I know every step to take,

I know every creak the stairs will make.

Holding on to home

like it’s as real as a stone, and

if I told you: «you imagined it».

Would it matter anymore, if

you’re with me?

As long as you’re with me.

I’m holding on to home.
