Story Behind The Song
life experience, man.
Song Description
Growing up can be hard. Sometimes there are choices to make or events that can occur that can be painful in the short term but ultimately they are necessary as we each grow.
This song talks about the fears and exhilarations associated with leaving one home in search of another.
The refrain "Leaving Home" can be interpreted as leaving (or growing away from) your faith or loved one in search of new experiences. The "Angels will fall" phrase is a metaphor illustrating that sometimes even the biggest things must make way (or give light) for the little things to grow.

Lyrics
On my way, only the world can shelter me
From this peak, I can see...
Angels will fall
Leaving light for us all...
Leaving home
Leaving home
Leaving home
Talk to me; tell me now how the world will be
Hope for me, to find love
Angels will fall
Leaving light for us all...
Leaving home
Leaving home
Leaving home
I'll find my home (Welcome to you world)
I'll find my home
I'm leaving home
Leaving home
Leaving home
