Caedmon's Call: Where I Began

Lyrics

The grass looked greener on the other side and so I tried to
Snatch myself from your hand
Caught a boat to anywhere but Nineveh and, well you know, I
Got spit back on dry land

Give me purity and give me continence
But oh no, not yet
Like a coin hiding in the corner trying not to be swept
And I was trying not to be swept

Kicking against these goads sure did cut up my feet and
Didn't your hands get bloody
As you washed them clean, you washed them

Here I am again, back where I began
Try as I may I can't get away from you
And all of these roads that lead me to roam
Bring me back home and
Here I am again, back where I began

So you have yourself your ninety-nine
Is that enough for you?
Still you followed me into the shadowed valley
You kept me on your shoulders too

I've done the work of Sisyphus
Thinking that I could get over this hill
But the one thing I can't get over now is the
Is the force of your will

Here I am again, back where I began
Try as I may I can't get away from you
And all of these roads that lead me to roam
Bring me back home and
Here I am again, back where I began

Here I am again, back where I began
Try as I may I can't get away from you
And all of these roads that lead me to roam
Bring me back home and
Here I am again, back where I began

Where I began
Where I began
Where I began
