we run in circles long distance
we can't get lost in town like this
with all the same stores everywhere

in the same squares

the light pollution fills our cells

we pick our battles but don't pick well
we run ourselves to death
we're nowhere yet


++++++++++++++++++++


take the long way home
take the wrong roads
take the long way home

take the wrong roads

++++++++++++++++++++


if you were a friend
you'd let them know that

we just couldn't stand
to stay here anymore


so please don't feel like
you need to pretend
you don't want us to go


sell all your things
we just won't need them

whatever we bring
will only weigh us down


if you're a friend
you'll tell them all that
we just couldn't stand

to stay here in this town
anymore


++++++++++++++++++++

take the long way home

take the wrong roads
take the long way home
take the wrong roads

take the long way home
take the long way home
take the long way home

take the wrong roads
