Lyrics

Sometimes it feels like it's so close
and still a million miles away
Like this journey's always just begun

Like chasing the warm but blinding sun
An oasis in a desert
That ever-recedes into the horizon

Like some void that we cannot fill
Though we try and try still
To treat the wound that just won't seem to heal

Burning questions in the dark
A lonesome cry in the wilderness
For something that we think we don't already have

But what our search has made us runaways?
What if the answer's not the great unknown?
What if the road we've walked 10,000 times was the one to lead us home?

It's like the keys lie in our hands
To these soothing shackles
But we insist someone else will set us free

All the while we tell ourselves
Tall tales to pass the time
While the prison doors stand open wide

But what our search has made us runaways?
What if the answer's not the great unknown?
What if the road we've walked 10,000 times was the one to lead us home

Sometimes it feels like it's so close
and still a million miles away
Like this journey's always just begun
