We spoke today to a jury

You can see the doubt in their eyes

Our words are trained to the angry

There was nothing left to change their minds

We remember when you were my accomplice

Now we forget why we started this

I don't want to go in the fire

I just want to stay in my home

I don't want to hear all the liars

I just want to be with my own

I don't want to go in the fire

I just want to stay in my home

We took today what we buried

You just hope to pass, that's why you hide it

I held your weight, now it holds me

A cowards way to be in violet

You will protest what you ask your blessing

Till you accept them into your nest

I don't want to go in the fire

I just want to stay in my home

I don't want to hear all the liars

I just want to be with my own

I don't want to go in the fire

I just want to stay in my home

We call them in, we call them out

We call them in, we call them out

We're coming, we're coming home

We're coming, we're coming home
