And we fight to stay afloat
And we hold on
To hope so weary
These callused hands still held aloft
Growing tired of the pain and the loss
Give me faith, for I have none
But give me pride
In all I've done
But give me love, I shall return
For a soul without love has so much to learn
Now my pen bleeds the love of my mother and father
Even when I can't be bothered by the time
And I found my soul in the place I came from
It was hiding 'neath the shadows of my mind
And we're all from somewhere else
And even though we've lost ourselves
Well we're finding home on the streets we roam
We're finding home
Keep count the hours I've been lost
We're finding home at any cost
Along these Boston streets I'll earn my keep
We're finding home
Now my pen bleeds the love of my mother and father
Even when I can't be bothered by the time
And I found my soul in the place I came from
It was hiding 'neath the shadows of my mind
And we're all from somewhere else
And even though we've lost ourselves
Well we're finding home on the streets we roam
We're finding home
Along these Boston streets I'll earn my keep
We're finally home
