The Long Way Home
Somewhere on the dead-silent street
A house used to be mine
Every corner of it still seems to know me
Like my brother's still alive
Sitting by the firewood glow
Watching everyone come and go
To an afterlife that nobody knows
24's a long way from home
Bet you've never seen a starry sky
As pretty as a sunrise
Oh, don't you see what we gave away?
A past that was all mine
Is there someone who'd still let me in?
"So long, tell me, where have you been"
Digging a grave for my dying hope
24's a long way from home
Who's gonna pour in some life where it's hollow?
Who's gonna wake the long-gone with a piano?
This heart of mine has got a reason to keep beating
Who knows what we've got in our unscripted tomorrows?
A house used to be mine
Every corner of it still seems to know me
Like my brother's still alive
Sitting by the firewood glow
Watching everyone come and go
To an afterlife that nobody knows
24's a long way from home
Bet you've never seen a starry sky
As pretty as a sunrise
Oh, don't you see what we gave away?
A past that was all mine
Is there someone who'd still let me in?
"So long, tell me, where have you been"
Digging a grave for my dying hope
24's a long way from home
Who's gonna pour in some life where it's hollow?
Who's gonna wake the long-gone with a piano?
This heart of mine has got a reason to keep beating
Who knows what we've got in our unscripted tomorrows?
