On My Way Home

I didn't see it coming

Blindsided by the pain

I was on my way home

My life, forever changed

It happened in an instant

In the blink of an eye

I was on my way home

Then, in the middle of the night

Mayhem erupting outside

Matched the fireworks going off in my head

On the long, slow road to recovery

Where I made my bed

I laid there in silence

Awaiting my fate

I was on my way home

No longer sure of the way

Navigational worries

May be all in my head

I was on my way home

Before being left for dead

I prayed to the heavens

And to all who would listen

I was on my way home

Uncertain of what I was missing

Yes, I prayed to the heavens

And to all who would listen

I was on my way home

Not sure what I was missing

It happened in an instant

In the blink of an eye

I was on my way home

Then, in the middle of the night

Mayhem erupting outside

Matched the fireworks going off in my head

On the long, slow road to recovery
