Been Away Too Long
You can't go home, no, I swear you never can
You can walk a million miles and get nowhere
I got nowhere to go ever since I came back
Just filling in the lines from the holes to the cracks
No one knows me,
No one saves me,
No one loves or hates me
I've been away for too long
This place has a special kind of falling apart,
Like they put the whole thing together in the dark
And no one knows where the edge of the knife is
And no one knows what intelligent life is
No one knows me,
No one saves me,
No one loves or hates me
Going straight
I only ever really wanted a break
I've been away for too long
No, I never really wanted to stay
I've been away for too long
I've been away for too long
I've been away for too long
Kilos through keyholes
Widows through windows
Pilots through eyelets
Everyone is silent
Tankards and flagons and snifters and flutes
On my way home
Going straight
I only ever really wanted a break
I've been away for too long
No, I never really wanted to stay
I've been away...
Going straight
I only ever really wanted a break
I've been away for too long
No, I never really wanted to stay
I've been away for too long
