Come…
Come back…
Come back to us…
Come back to use, please…

Every line’s a trigger
for the memories when you’ve suffered
angry voices
loss of choices
violence in the air
smell of blood everywhere

Monsters looking human
yet they loved causing torment
(and damn, they still do!)
You were forced to flee
leaving your home country…

Come…
Come back…
Come back to us…
Come back to use, please…

You think your life’s a dead end
but you’re deadly wrong, my friend
There’s a reason you’re still here
eventhough it’s still unclear
Be the voice of the reason
why all this madness and violence
should be gone

I can see it’s grim
but you’re more than just a victim
You’re a survivor
Be the warrior

Come…
Come back…
Come back to us…
Come back to use, please…

Some memories are like ghosts
I know they can hurt you worst
but don’t let them win
even when you feel like caving in
It’s okay to cry
Why do you need to lie?

But for now…
Just focus on what you’ve got
even when you feel it’s not a lot
Let no ghosts hurt you so
When you’re down, you know where to go

Come…
Come back…
Come back to us…
Come back to use, please…

Please, don’t shut us out
not even in your moment of doubts
Let us in
even when we don’t know where to begin
including how to heal your pain…

Let the ghosts stay in the past
Have faith
Your bad days never last

R.
