[Verse 1]

What was it like to see

The face of your own stability

Suddenly look away

Leaving you with the dead and hopeless?

Eleven and she was gone

Eleven is when we waved goodbye

Eleven is standing still (Waiting for me)

Waiting for me to free him by

Coming home


[Verse 2]

Moving me with a sound

Opening me within a gesture

Drawing me down and in

(Showing me where it all began)

Showing me where it all began

Eleven

He was too scarred to realize

You were the voice that's been calling me back home


[Verse 3]

Under a dead Ohio sky

Eleven has been and will be waiting

Defending his light and wondering

Where the hell have I been?

Sleeping lost and numb, I'm

So glad that I have found you

I am wide awake and heading home


[Bridge]

I wish that I could see you

Turn and run to play

Dreams are fading

Carry my ancient soul

Carry me into the light

Aim your body heavenly

Enduring a memory

I'll come to your light

Hold your light where I can see it

High


[Verse 4]

Hold your light, Eleven

Lead me through each gentle step, by step

By inch by loaded memory, I'll move to heal

As soon as pain allows so we can

Reunite and both move on together

Hold your light, Eleven

Lead me through each gentle step, by step

By inch by loaded memory until

One and one are one, eleven

So glow, child, glow

I'm heading back home
