Story Behind The Song
This is the story of a man who was put in an asylum, who repeatedly tried to escape on many occasions. After many years of medication, one night he escaped and found himself alone and afraid, not knowing where to go. He desperately wants to go home...to the past but he's lost and cannot find his way.
Everyone searches for something, never quite sure of what it is.

Lyrics
Verse 1:
The wind in my face, as I run through the night.
It worries me to think, that I'm not all right.
Why am I drowsy? Have I been drugged?
These memories of people...I'm not familiar with.
Chorus:
In here, ya see life go past.
It's only for awhile...relax.
Another time, another chance.
Life is where you take it...the past.
Verse 2:
Well I have to stop running...gotta catch my breath.
Somethings not right here, inside my head.
What can I tell you? What have I done?
Why am I restrained? And not thought of?
Chorus:
In here, ya see life go past.
It' s only for awhile...relax.
Another time, another chance.
Life is where you take it...the past.
Solo
Verse 3:
Somewhere...in my concious mind.
Well I fought off the drugs.
But I had to hide.
How did I get here? Will I make it home?
What is the date now? how long was I gone?
Chorus:
In here, ya see life go past.
It's only for awhile...relax.
Another time, another chance.
Life is where you take it...I wanna go home.
I wanna go home...I wanna go home...I wanna go home...la di da di da.
I wanna go home...I wanna go home...I wanna go home...la di da di da.
I wanna go home...I wanna go home...I wanna go home...la di da di da.
I wanna go home...I wanna go home...won't you take me home.
In here, you see life go past.
It's only for awhile...relax.
