The highway lights ain’t blinding enough I’ve tried
To block out all the photos and failures
That put me on this road
You see the house I built is shaking off its stilts
And the cold water flows beneath the walls where I buried my soul
Chorus:
Oh how we gonna get back home
With our pies in the skies and our eyes on the horizon
But a lollipop stuck to the floor
I will not stand (you can come back home anytime)
With my hat in hand (you can come back home)
And I know there’s a light but the tunnel is so hard to find
Chorus
Sigh a while, because these knees are not for sale
But I don’t know for how long
Chorus
