Lyrics
Verse 1:
In the heart of steel and smoke,
Where the daylight never shows,
Machines hum a ceaseless tune,
As my weary spirit grows.
Verse 2:
Hours blend into a haze,
Lost in this industrial maze,
Dreams of home are distant stars,
Shining through the iron bars.
Pre-Chorus:
Gears turn, the hours blend,
Dreams of freedom start to bend,
Echoes of a distant place,
Where my heart begins to race.
Chorus:
I want to go home, leave this factory behind,
Find the light that's been confined.
Hear the song of the open road,
Where my dreams can be bestowed.
Verse 3:
Ringing anvils, metal's cry,
Shadows cast beneath the sky,
Hands are calloused, heart is torn,
Yearning for the break of dawn.
Verse 4:
Every clang a bitter sound,
Chains that keep me factory-bound,
Sweat and toil, day and night,
For a glimpse of morning light.
Pre-Chorus:
Gears turn, the hours blend,
Dreams of freedom start to bend,
Echoes of a distant place,
Where my heart begins to race.
Chorus:
I want to go home, leave this factory behind,
Find the light that's been confined.
Hear the song of the open road,
Where my dreams can be bestowed.
Bridge:
Through the clang and the grind,
I hold the vision in my mind,
Fields of green, skies of blue,
A world outside this iron hue.
Verse 5:
Smoke-filled skies and iron walls,
In this cage my spirit calls,
For the freedom of the wild,
Where the earth and sky beguile.
Verse 6:
Factory life is all I know,
But my heart's where rivers flow,
One day I'll break these chains,
Chase the sun through open plains.
Pre-Chorus:
Gears turn, the hours blend,
Dreams of freedom start to bend,
Echoes of a distant place,
Where my heart begins to race.
Chorus:
I want to go home, leave this factory behind,
Find the light that's been confined.
Hear the song of the open road,
Where my dreams can be bestowed.
Outro:
One day I'll break these chains,
Leave behind the steel and stains,
Walk the path where freedom lies,
Underneath the open skies.
Final Chorus:
I want to go home, leave this factory behind,
Find the light that's been confined.
Hear the song of the open road,
Where my dreams can be bestowed.
Outro (Reprise):
One day I'll break these chains,
Leave behind the steel and stains,
Walk the path where freedom lies,
Underneath the open skies.
