Far From Home

by Dre Perish

/
1.
taken by this crazy weather taken far from home lost the map to guide us back back to where we know all was quiet when we started now it's loud as hell don't forget that the desert speaks just as much as the mountains yawn a song sing a song of joy in this world of noise

Ketaluma 04:31
ketaluma ketaluma go out ketaluma ketaluma go down all way down ketaluma ketaluma go down
3.
if you had a voice you'd say to me "living ain't as easy as it used to be" and I would tell you first and you would have to be only what you are to be free oooo there's nothing in this world you can't do so you seem to formulate a plan maybe even take an honest man learn a trade and then you will begin again do yr best and move on oooo there's nothing in this world you can't do I don't wanna be yr excuse oooo there's nothing in this world you can't do and I will live on without you

Long Gone 04:53
she's long she's long gone she's long she's long gone if she could be recovered then I could be recovered
5.
I've been thinking 'bout the last time that I met you didn't quite have the words to speak my mind if only I could find a way to tell you just how much I need you in my life sometimes I wish I could live life backwards then perhaps I'd stay beside yr side cause I've got nowhere else to go nowhere else to go nowhere else to go oh no I've been trying hard to forget all my feelings but I can't seem to wrestle my own heart I think I'll patch the hole where I've been bleeding it's easy to forget I fall apart if I could only find a way to tell you that I can never finish what I start and I've got nowhere else to go nowhere else to go nowhere else to go oh no
6.
The Island 04:49
I wanna see the sunset on the other side of the island but I can't move cause I got beat up by a guy named Cyrus I've learned not to mess with a man with a bad reputation for being rough so if you lose track of yr head and run into Cyrus he might get pissed and raise his fist to salute you to salute you and he's not looking for a good time he's only looking for some action looking for some action tonight I wanna dance the hula with a girl by the name of Delilah but I can't find her cause she's hiding behind the fire that was set off in a vain attempt at revolution for something new so if you see Delilah tell her they're all liars they just get pissed and raise their fists to salute you to salute you and she's not looking for a good time she's only looking for some action looking for some action tonight I wanna get off this crazy ride before I have a breakthrough before I start talking the way that they do before I start saying something new so I try to make a motion and run into the ocean and get away they might just say it's a solution a solution and I'm not looking for a good time I'm only looking for some action looking for some action tonight
7.
float in the Caribbean like a boat that came from Spain populating slavery living like humanity oh building up a history spreading out the sea to leaving home this is not a statement I can't speak the language at all this is for my people the ones they're never talking about
8.
I'm tired of waiting waiting for love to come around cause every time I've waited nothing comes along throw my coins in the river wishful thinking gives me shivers I'm tired of waiting waiting for love to come around cause every time I've waited nothing comes along hear the bells that ring the new year hope to break myself outta here all my instincts were wrong find the strength to move on all my instincts were wrong I'm tired of waiting waiting for love to come along I'm tired of waiting for love to come along hear the bells that ring the new year hope to break myself outta here all my instincts were wrong all my instincts were wrong find the strength to move on

about

This is a collection of tunes I wrote and recorded a number of years ago. They are put together here for the first time as a cohesive album that captures a place in time. Its themes are consistent with that of already losing our grip, picking up the pieces and learning to let go of the hurt that we can't help but hold on to. "Far From Home" represents the will we have to press on and move forward beyond our obstacles.
