Holding on to Home Video (MV)

Endearing though to me
Many a man has tried to flee
The sordid corners of
This putrid penitentiary
Oh, are you here with me?

Are you here with me, or
Am I dreaming of your shackles
Loudly dragging through
The hallways of my reverie
Oh, are you here with me?

Farther than a lunar axis
As far as I know outer space is
Innovation never takes us
As far as we can be
What is left for me?

Dimmer than a summer solstice
North of any blooming roses
Melted water, open faces
Below the winter freeze
The cold paralyzes me

I'm holding on to home

Thumbs up for the next ride in
I'll go where fuel carries it
I hope it's reaching Gulu town
I'll meet my friends sometime
Around the bend

The kitchen smells of memories
And there beside the quarterlies
Are photos of my family, but
Some of them are missing me, and
I am missing them right back

I'm holding on to home

There is nothing captivating
On this road that we are roaming
I know every step to take
I know every creak the stairs will make

Holding on to home

Like it's as real as a stone, and
If I told you, "You imagined it"
Would it matter anymore, if
You're with me?
As long as you're with me

I'm holding on to home
