A song about lost pilgrims and unexpected happiness...that comes at a cost.

lyrics

MAKE IT HOME
(Kaichang)

In the light of burning boats
We stand naked on the shore
And we look into each other's eyes
And know we are alone,
And we cannot know nor guess
What the future holds in store;
This is a strange land,
will we ever make it home?

When the storm was at its height
And we feared our hour had come,
That the spirits of the sea would take
And claim us for their own,
Then I prayed to all the gods
Till my lips with cold grew numb:
"Let us find land,
let my people make it home."

There is much in this new land to fill our hearts with fear,
There is reason to believe we are not wanted here...

But my crew must eat and drink
And in sleep must close their eyes,
Without fear that some wild beast aprowl
Will gnaw them to the bone,
So we shall stay here for a time
By what means we can devise,
This is not our land,
But some day we shall make it home.

The trees fall to the axe, the beasts fall to the spear,
And one day we discover there are people here...

(Instrumental)

We have dwelt here for a time
And the land has shaped our lives
And my crew has grown accustomed
To this shore where we were thrown,
And they would not now be reft
From their homes and from their wives...

This is not our land,
But somehow we have made it home.
It is not our land
But now I know we've made it home.

Zanda Myrande Westbury, UK

Zanda Myrande is still recovering from the trauma of being Zander Nyrond for several decades. She has only come out online at this point, for reasons which may be apparent from the picture above, but she proudly embraces her trans identity while still giving house room to Zander and the rest of the deadbeats who populate her head.

Lives in Wiltshire and has better friends than she deserves. ... more
