I cannot sleep,
can't find peace.
Faded world,
distant relief.

My soul to sell,
but I cannot tell.
Who owns me,
as I walk in hell?

I'm a long way from home,
long, long gone.
I'm a long way from home,
how far can I go?

Getting a grip,
taking control.
Last call,
and I'm so alone.

Pieces of me,
blown astray.
Cannot cope,
taken away.

I'm a long way from home,
long, long gone.
I'm a long way from home,
how far can I go?

Something says,
I haven't changed.
I swim through madness,
just to stay sane.

Dirty deeds,
help me please.
A pardoned convict,
without release.

I'm a long way from home,
long, long gone.
I'm a long way from home,
how far can I go?

Are you there,
friend of mine?
A lost servant,
without a dime.

Stones to throw,
shards of glass.
One day soon,
this too, shall pass.

I'm a long way from home,
long, long gone.
I'm a long way from home,
how far can I go?

I've walked a million miles,
how much longer can I go?
I've walked a million miles,
can I ever make it back?
I've seen it all, without a doubt,
will I be able to forget?
I'm so lost, so alone,
here I am, without you.

I'm a long way from home,
long, long gone.
I'm a long way from home,
how far can I go?
