Lyrics

Burned out from the road
I'm too tired to talk about it
I want to go home
And I'm feeling kind of sick about it
And all the things I wrote
My judgment still seems so clouded
And you just seem to float
And I'm beside you and I'm drowning
It's a long way from home
It's getting further all the time
And I feel so alone
In these lonely rooms of wrong and rhyme
And my hands they are slipping
Down this ever thinning line
Waiting for the dawn
But I'll do my best to keep holding on
The further that you go
Between the borderlines of faith and fear
The less you seem to know
The more things seem crystal clear
And the more that you get
The less you feel you really have
And the more you regret
The more you feel under attack
And it's a long way from home
Further than I've ever been
And I feel so alone
In this godforsaken state I'm in
And the tether is ripping
I'm falling behind
So far gone
And I'll do my best to keep holding on
Every once in awhile
I tell myself I'll be OK
Just a few miles and a world away
Every now and then
I can finally get all the voices
The silence in my head
It's a symphony of lousy choices
And the stupid things I've said
It's a minefield of darkened forces
An unfamiliar bed
It sets me off on uncharted courses
It's a long way from home
Further than I've ever been
And I feel so alone
Right back in this town again
And the scales they are tipping
I'm losing my mind
Waiting for your call
But I'll do my best to keep holding on
I'll do my best to keep holding on
I'll do my best to keep holding on
Yeah I'll do my best to keep holding on
