Lyrics
sober night
on fire
i got this blind
desire
just when i thought
i was tired
that strange light
keeps getting brighter and brighter
a long way
from home
such a long way
from home
sometimes i think i'm onto something
something i feel but cannot see
but just when i reach out to touch it
i got spiders on my fingertips
spinning webs between my lips
i can't speak until i get a grip on this
...
shut the door
don't want no sound
i don't want
no one else around
just like a book
i can't put down
i lay and read the voices spinning
round and round and round and round
a long way
from home
such a long way
from home
it seemed like this was going somewhere
just like the story of a dream
but just when i know that i'm nowhere
somehow i'm somewhere inbetween
knowing places i've never seen
hearing songs of tomorrow
singing back to me
hearing songs of tomorrow
singing back to me...
