I'm hanging on the corner in the back seat
Just got the word; been a long time coming
A thousand miles out from where you left me
It's all I've ever known
You're living on a dollar and a daydream
Pulling the weight of their expectations
I think it's about time you break free
From everyone back home
And everything you've known
And it's a long way home
I'm in so deep and it's only just begun
On my own and I won't look back for anyone
Common sense seems so dead
And I feel it on this long way home
I won't look back for anyone
You're trading your youth for a paycheck
Punching the clock in this dead rotation
Still can't find a way to make rent
Cut loose and let it go
And it's a long way home
I'm in so deep and it's only just begun
On my own and I won't look back for anyone
Common sense seems so dead
And I feel it on this long way home
I won't look back for anyone
