"In Exile" lyrics - THRICE

THRICE
"In Exile"

I am an exile, a sojourner
A citizen of some other place
All I've seen is just a glimmer in a shadowy mirror
But I know one day we'll see face to face

I am a nomad, a wanderer
I have nowhere to lay my head down
There's no point in putting roots too deep when I'm moving on
Not settling for this unsettling town

[Chorus:]
My heart is filled with songs of forever
A city that endures, where all is made new
I know I don't belong here, I'll never
Call this place my home, I'm just passing through

I am a pilgrim, a voyager
I won't rest until my lips touch the shore
Of the land that I've been longing for as long as I've lived
Where there'll be no pain or tears anymore

[Chorus:]
My heart is filled with songs of forever
A city that endures, where all is made new
I know I don't belong here, I'll never
Call this place my home, I'm just passing through
