Long Way Home

3 am and sleep must be the last thing on my mind
how did it get so late so fast, it still feels like last night
thinking about that sunrise as i turn the keys and drive
thinking about the last time that i really felt alive
staring blankly at that road that stretches far ahead
i dont know when ill get back, or when i even left
think of lines and dreams and drives and hives that i just met
all along my eyes they burn while dreaming of my bed

and its a long way home
another long day gone
oh wont you take me home
won't ya

morning strums the chaos dies and still i feel a mix
i cant recall what home feels like or if it still exists
and this long drive is suicide that never finishes
think of life through every mile and i still mell her skin
now im losing track of time in here the suns about to rise
thinking how these moments are the soundtracks to our lives
and i cant wait to taste the air of california skies
take me home to all my own, the home that i cant find

and its a long way home
another long day gone
oh wont you take me home
take me home

Running back into that place from where i ran away
breathing every moment in that soon the time will take
think of all the scars; the stars; the hearts i had to break
one day i will find the time i never had to take

and its a long way home
another long day gone
x4

oh wont you take me home
