"Been Away Too Long" lyrics

You can't go home
No I swear you never can
You can walk a million miles
And get nowhere
I got nowhere to go
Ever since I came back
Just filling in the lines
From the holes to the cracks

And no one knows me
No one saves me
No one loves or hates me
I've been away for too long

This place has a special
Kind of falling apart
Like they put the whole thing
Together in the dark
No one knows
Where the edge of the knife is
And no one knows
What intelligent life is

And no one knows me
No one saves me
No one loves or hates me

But it's fate
I only ever really wanted a break
I've been away for too long
Though I never really wanted to stay
I've been away for too long

I've been away for too long
I've been away for too long

Kilos through key-holes
Widows through windows
Pilots through eyelets
Everyone is silent
Tankards and flagons
And snifters and flutes
On my way home

But it's fate
I only ever really wanted a break
I've been away for too long
Though I never really wanted to stay
I've been away
But it's fate
I only ever really wanted a break
I've been away for too long
Though I never really wanted to stay
I've been away for too long

Yeah!
