"Miles Away" lyrics

"Miles Away"

Holy rollers with careless tongues
Shout the name of the chosen one
Drums are pounding with no relief
Rising over the crowded streets

Miles away, miles away
Lost inside their shadow play
Miles away, miles away
So many miles away

Highways strangled with smoke and dust
Hanging over the evening rush
Twisted faces with old regrets
Rest their eyes on the road ahead

Miles away, miles away
Lost inside their shadow play
Miles away, miles away
So many miles away

Sirens howling as children sleep
In the glow of a TV screen
A golden sparrow on broken wings
Tumbles over the rising sea

Miles away, miles away
Lost inside their shadow play
Miles away, miles away
So many miles away

So many miles away
