Long Way Home
I've got a million lives baby
I lead 'em around like hounds
Walk upon these gilded streets
With gloria all around
Just got in from three BC
Now I'm feeling underwhelmed
Black and blue by the red sea
Nice to know you're at the helm
Tuesday vanished like a bird
I can't face you anymore
Trample following a herd
I said come let us adore
I thought love was eternal
But it's just an unsatisfied external
I thought love was enduring
But it's a sickness, it needs curing
(And then I pull it back)
I'm a cog in this machine
My approval rating's down
I'm looping in a subroutine
Nice to know you're all around
There's a message in the stars
There's a prophet in the dust
There's a door I can't walk past
It's a lust that's just a must
I thought love was eternal
But it's just an unsatisfied external
I thought love was enduring
But it's a sickness, it needs curing
I thought love was eternal
But it's just an unsatisfied external
I thought love was enduring
But it's a sickness, it needs curing
