2,000 Steps

You wear an insatiable gaze
Wander around this cathedral for days
I don't know how you can smile
Watching the crowds

Your feet tread lightly the ground
As if they have known all the pain pound for pound
Slam your fist high in the air
Burning we are

Welcome home
You've had a good run
Now you're done
And you just want to lay down
Welcome home
You've fought the good fight
I was so proud
Now I just want to slow down


You are the opening scene
Where everything you touch is golden to me
You grasp the sky in your hands
Pulling it down

Run for the hills here they come
Row upon row standing still in the sun
There is a safe place I know
Hurry, let's go
