Within a Mile of Home (OOC)

It occurs to me that I should probably start crediting the fact that all of my thread titles are song names

Within a Mile of Home is by Flogging Molly.

Later in this thread I will be using lyrics from the same song. I'm putting them here for now just so I don't have to go and find them again:

Dust falls on the empty halls of my old school

Where the memories fade like the casualty, a forgotten fool

Now wide-eyed has become the blind of spoken rule

As equal only deep is now the word

The lesson's not the answer you once heard

"Don't turn your back on me, don't ever let me down"

She said, "I picked you up each time before you hit the ground

Your selfish face is now erased when someone mentions you

And the darkness that you left is overstepped aside

Will disappear in clouds, the sun arrives

Within a mile of home, within a mile of home"

Oh worry, oh my worry has it been that long?

The whistle keeps on blowing but the chills all gone

His empty frame cannot explain, there's nothing left inside

So sing to me a song from yesterday

When laughter filled the tears that we now make

"Don't turn your back on me, don't ever let me down"

She said, "I picked you up each time before you hit the ground

Your selfish face is now erased when someone mentions you

If only you had seen what I now see

And turned the corner where you would of been

Within a mile of home, within a mile of home"

So sing to me, sing me a song, a song from yesterday

And when the laughter turned these tears before the promises, then they'll slip away

Don't turn your back on me, dont't turn your back on me, don't ever let me down

Don't turn your back on me, dont't turn your back on me, don't ever let me down

We are within a mile, we are within a mile, within a mile of home

We are within a mile, we are within a mile, within a mile of home

We are within a mile, we are within a mile, within a mile of home

We are within a mile, we are within a mile, within a mile of home

The lyrics featured in the first post are from So Cold by Breaking Benjamin.

I don't own this stuff. I am crediting the people who do :)
