Lyrics
You Were the Long Way Home
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You saw all these stupid visions dissolve.
Showed up, hadn't been so worried in years.
You saw every single person you knew
Throughout eyes that won't impress you again.
And in winning you were the song beginning,
you were the long way home.
And in ending you gotta stop defending,
you were the long way home.
You love the way it's out of focus right now.
Hold on, it's not getting clearer, that's you.
The sight of you that don't want help from anyone,
Keep it down, keep it down.
