Five Finger Death Punch – Far From Home lyrics

Five Finger Death Punch – Far From Home lyrics

Verse 1

Another day in this carnival of souls
Another night settles in, as quickly as it goes
The memories are shadows; ink on the page
And I can't seem to find my way home

Chorus

And it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
Your heaven's trying everything
To keep me out

Verse 2

All the places I've been and things I've seen
A million stories that made up a million shattered dreams
The faces of people I'll never see again
And I can't seem to find my way home

Chorus

Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down
Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To keep me out

[Guitar Solo]

Chorus

Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down
Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down
To break me down

Outro

To break me down
Your heavens trying everything
Your heavens trying everything
To break me... Down

I agree with AutumnHeart. But I also feel another meaning. About a person who time and time again has been hurt, let down, broken. A person surrounded by people who's souls are lacking morals, honesty and love. A person who is tired and no longer wants to try. Someone who has lost there self and find themselves. Therefore they can't find there way home. Being tested time and time again. To where your faith is lost and you begin to have suicidal thoughts in your head just to find peace. But knowing the gates to heaven will slam shut before you if you take the only way out you know.

I also feel that this song relates to a lot of the people who have not served in the armed forces. Myself being one of them. This song really hit home for me. I have and still am trying everything I can to make a better life for my family and I. It has seemed like every corner rounded there are three more to get you to the light. It's fighting a constant inevitable battle holding onto that slight glimpse of hope and light that keeps its distance from you. Sometimes it is hard to continue but you have to because you know it's the only way. The only thing you know how to do. The only thing that will make you and your family persevere. I love hearing songs like this one because they reveal the true colors of people in this world. These artists know first hand what it's like to fight your way through life to make it to the top. The majority of them have seen hard times that others couldn't imagine. But they kept pushing and following their dreams. That's the only way to ever survive in the world.

Autumnheart is the closest to correct. There are multiple interpretations but I feel his/hers is the best and closest. I'm currently thinking of joining the united states marine corps so when I here this song I hope that if I become a marine and have to kill day to day that I won't hear this, my favorite song, and break because of the true facts that no matter the reason the taking of another human life is murder regardless of if it is a merciful killing or not. If you want the truth here's the song. You will lose friends in the military especially the marine corps because they are the first deployed and the last sent home. Semper fi. Oorah!

Since the song is called 'Far From Home' and the Album is 'War is the Answer' and with verse 2 about all the places, shattered dreams, never see the faces again, can't find my way home. I think this is a soldier suffering Post Traumatic Stress after coming home from the war and now everything is changed for him even his faith and belief in religion and maybe he sees himself too sinful after all the killing to make it to heaven. Because of the war he's probably suicidal now.

I love this group 2012 oh me has been awful horrible a war of heartache so many trials. Mom had cancer this song is what I listen to this and I remember everything. It great when you find music to fit your situations, and this is awesome job for you. S. Army I appreciate them and pray for them all always. God be with them and their familys protect them and guide them, it hurts when we lose our loved ones the memorys never go away, and alot men and women has put up their lifes to protect people of the united state, and I thank god for them. And we all in life has our wars inside of us, this song help me through my darkest hours when one moma daughters wouldnt let me see mom for she said my man was a drunk and he said she dress like a man, anyway.
