sanctuary lyrics

tried everything to find you
i even took the stairway to hell
i wrote these words down to remind you
that i know life is never pass or fail

so hand me the keys to your kingdom
give me back my garden of Eden
lead me to a place that i can call my own

a home
a sanctuary
home

and we are standing on the edge of it
trying to make some sense of it all
the fear is building and the hatred
until you know we're left with nothing left at all
you know i'm falling

so hand me the code to your gates of knowledge
teach me the truth i never learned in college
lead me through the valley, let me find a place called

home
a sanctuary
home
and it's the archeticture of peace
and it's the streets that lead to release
and it's the hallways and doorways of hope
and its a place that we call
home

(home-i tried everything to find you
home- i lost everything to find you)

the military is leading tours through town
a couple more weeks and the walls come down
i don't care if its East or West
i just need to get some rest, I'm
home

and it's the archeticture of peace
and it's the streets the lead to release
and it's the hallways and doorways of hope
and it's a place that we call home

sha la, sha lalala sha la
sha la lalalala sha la sha lalala la la
home.
