Long Way Home

You spend your life defending rights
And throw the rest away
You're cold as ice you think it's right
To lead our love astray
I see your face
Oh no my heart's not beating any longer
There's just a haze
I'm blinded, no this can't be any wronger

You use your innocence to find the lonely road
Not makin' any sense you get inside my soul
You want your independence granted yes I know
Yeah you'll do anything to find the long way home

We spend our nights in senseless fights
These foolish games we play
So this ain't real that's how you feel
The same old things you say
You keep extinguishing our flame
I wonder why we bother
You preach not knowing who's to blame
But does this really matter

You use your innocence to find the lonely road
Not makin' any sense you get inside my soul
You want your independence granted yes I know
Yeah you'll do anything to find the long way home

Well I guess it's open season
Time to throw away all them memories
You seem to insist on taking the hard line
Wastin' all our precious time
I know that times are tough
But that excuse ain't good enough
Go on - go on
Keep taking that long way home

You keep taking that long way home
Taking that long way home
You keep taking that long way home
