Carry Me Home - The Killers

Let me out

Don’t tell me everything

Start it out

Like any other day

Must have gave the wrong impression

Don’t you understand where I belong?

I’m not the one

Stand again

They say nothing comes for free

And that’s the truth

I’ve been living in a fantasy

Slip and slide ahead trip heaven

Self-denial is such a wonderful and powerful thing

But I’m not the one

The morning dove sings with two broken wings

Carry me home, I’m not afraid

The stars in my eyes with shimmering lights

Carry me home, don’t let me fade away

Stop the press the kids light is growing dim

It took a month long slide, then the world came caving in

When you self-destruct you wind up looking for a glimmer of hope

But the writing’s on the wall

I’m not the one

The morning dove sings with two broken wings

Carry me home, I’m not afraid

The stars in my eyes with shimmering lights

Carry me home, don’t let me fade (away)

Just how thick is your skin?

Just how sharp are your teeth?

Oh, you’ve got a lot to learn

Is there somewhere else that I can win

Is there something else to start over again

From the summit’s edge to the cutting room floor

I will be afraid no more

The morning dove sings with two broken wings

Carry me home, I’m not afraid

The stars in my eyes with shimmering lights

Carry me home, don’t let me fade

Carry me home, carry me
