Lyrics

All I needed was a friend
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
You are my favorite miracle
I'll hold your head up
When this life gets unbearable
Here we go again
Check check
All I needed was a friend
Talk me down from a ledge
Bring me back to myself
And my senses again
Here we are holding on
The beginning of the end
It's been one long night
And there's a long way ahead
Give me all that you got
Give me one more breath
Read me my old bucket list
Remind me what it says
Man I know it takes time
But someday you'll step down
From that ledge
And the whole world will say
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home from the worries
In your over-paced head
I tried to search my identity
I only made dents
I never thought there'd come a time in our lives
That we'd grow up and raise kids
We always said someday
We'd meet up at the golden gate bridge
If you touch the cold water there
Before I do
I hope it wakes you up
From everything you hold on to
And I'll see signs of life flashing
As your closed eyes move
We've been silent our entire short lives
Let me talk my truth
A backpack, a pad, and a car
I want to see the world
At least a couple national parks
This is my odyssey
My flashlight will map to the stars
If I come back
I'm coming back with a traveler's scar
All I needed was a friend
Talk me down from a ledge
Bring me back to myself
And my senses again
Here we are holding on
To the nothingness we kept
Every mountain that you moved
And every valley of regret
Give me all that you got
Give me one deep breath
I studied my old bucket list
I don't know what's ahead
But I know it takes time
Someday you'll step down
From that ledge
And the whole world will say
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home from a life
That you've been missing out on
Welcome home from a life
You never lived
Welcome home from 28 years
Of trying to find yourself
I never thought I'd end up like this
I haven't found my destiny
But it's my great adventure to do it
And this is where the story starts
And I won't rest till I'm through it
If you're afraid to move a mountain
That your depression has ruined
They say pressure makes diamonds
So I try and keep some depth in the music
Every time I step in the booth with it
And to my friends I'm sorry that I lost touch
I guess I had to get this reclusive
To excavate my flaws
And form the self respect to improve them
Cuz I'm not trying to preach
But I've been thinking
Ever since I was a kid
The grief that I've been given is a gift
If I don't try and make a difference
While I'm living
Then all these life lessons are useless
And they mean everything to me
All I needed was a friend
All I needed was a friend
All I needed was a friend
All I needed was a friend
To help me step down from that ledge
So dear friend of mine
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
And you're gonna
Find yourself someday
Someday you're just gonna wake up
And suddenly
You'll be alive and well
