I've spent my life out on the road
Those miles and nights have put their weight inside these bones
The sun is set the day is done
No matter how you stall the night will surely come
Now I'm never going back
As the world it spins into the black
I have felt a lot of pain
Proof enough that I've been dealt a lot of change
And ain't it funny if you go
In the same direction long enough you return home
Now I'm never going back
As the world it spins into the black
It's a long way
No matter how I choose to navigate
And it's a long day
I'm wishing I had it back when it starts to fade
And the longer I wait
The more it seems life can change in the blink of an eye
Blood is thicker some might say
Than water at the end of the day
I knew exactly what they meant
But they forgot the part about the covenant
Now I'm never going back
As the world it spins into the black
It's a long way
No matter how I choose to navigate
And it's a long day
Where will I be when it starts to fade
What will the sun bring to me the next day
Or where I'll be when the seasons change
I took the long way back home
Those miles and nights have put their weight inside these songs
