ive got a job down at the brewery so I dont mind taking my work home with me.You live you love you laugh you cry life just slides on byBut in my mind Im playing football in the rain youre standing on the line calling out my nameI close my eyes nothing ever feels the sameChorusSometimes I take the long way home I walk down to the seaI look out across the water and remember how it used to beIve got a car but I walk most everywhere so I can feel the earth feel the sun and breathe the airI stop and say hello no one answers back.Well Im doing o.k. Ive got friends and familyPeople to love and people who love meBut I still wish I could see my old town once againSometimes I take the long way home I walk down to the seaI look out across the water and remember how it used to beWe bar-b-que on Sunday watch the game on channel ninethe its down to the pub for a pint a glass of winesing karaoke to each otherHe aint heavy... hes my brotherSometimes I take the long way home I walk down to the seaI look out across the water and remember how it used to be

hold it in hold it inthese words are better left unsaidim sorry dadyou were always such a hero when todayi walked out of the doorand turned my back on loveit was the day i became a childsearching to grow upi wish this was a dreamyou were both always so forgivingi think it took me losing everythingi ruined something beautifuland all i askall i ask is one thingnever call me strangerjust please call me sontell me something wont youtell me what i was like oh wont you tell metell me what i was like when i was innocent.

Traditions ring hollow traditions ring trueBillions still following but they havent got a clueTurn a blind eye to the originsAnother time and placeWhere meanings changed with religious trends and fucked up social waysIndoctrinationYour path has been chosenIndoctrinationDont just blindly accept itThe need for power and the privilege to own another human beingA lifetime of holy matrimonySymbolized by a ringPrearranged and re-arrangedPrepare for life in these chainsDo you take this man to be your master?I dont is not the answerReproductive slave machine is all this ritual was meant to meanDo you take this woman to be your wife?I do now sentence her to fucking lifeTradition hides lies traditions hold truthDo we really need this paper to show us the proof?Do we really want to continue to give our daughters away?In a stupid game that used to mean rape torture and slaveryRituals created for us in a day and a timeWhen we had no choice what we did with our bodies or livesBought and sold they robbed us of all our prideFrom birth they owned us until we died.

The baby kicks in the womb and the whole world movesHe kisses her lips and she was calm the whole night throughWhile down the hall Sarah says her peace to her dadThey embrace. She says goodbye to the only man she’ll ever knowShe’s waiting for a signShe’s praying to the skyAll the walks around and round but when will she come downShe leaves him a note and packs up her thingsShe’s sick of the lies and the black eyes that never healShe’s waiting for a signShe’s praying to the skyAll the walks around and round but when will she come downSee we all just want a little piece of home to carry usAnd we all just want to feel like we’re loved for the life of usOh beauty calm your mind. You will be there.This life is more than just some comfort everywhere.We all just want a little piece of home to carry usAnd we all just want to feel like we’re loved for the life of us

Stay with me now away from all harmI don’t mind a heart to mend just hold me now don’t ever let me goStay with me now don’t go farI want you to be with me ‘till the endGive me your hand whenever you think you’ve lost your wayI’ll bring you back and we can go start a brand new dayDon’t walk out with just a stareTurn around and show me that you careStay with me now don’t go farI want you to be with me ‘till the endI don’t mind a heart to mend just hold me now don’t ever let me goStay…

It’s on the other sideThe life I cannot findI want it I need it nowJust outside my handsI’ll take it if I canI want it I need it nowAll these things that we’ve built will slowly fall apartFall apart and burst at the seams at the seamsHollywood is wrongI’ve known it all alongI love you I see it nowAll these things that we’ve built will slowly fall apartFall apart and burst at the seams at the seams‘Cause you can’t hold all these things with good intentions and hollow feelingsYou need love. You need love.

4 a.m. driving. New Mexico we’re arriving.Second day straight of driving.Rumble strips waking. A tired “Are you o.k.?”7 o’clock philosophy makes things seem okayBut I’m alright if you’re alrightThese last hundred miles have just been bringing me downBut if you turn up the radio and roll down the windows so we can scream at the top of our lungsI see love as fading but you say it is waiting somewhere out there…at least you swearL.A. was so crazy. The cell phone charge is draining. Get home fast ‘cause they’re all waiting.Cause I’m alright if you’re alrightThese last hundred miles have just been bringing me downBut if you turn up the radio and roll down the windows so we can scream at the top of our lungsOh home is just around the bend.Oh home is just around the bend.So I’m alright…

‘Cause you don’t love Him the way you loved Him the last time that you saw HimOh the words written on your face read like a farewell letterAnd the movement of your hand is like a lie detector‘Cause you don’t love Him the way you loved Him the last time that you saw HimSo you pierce him with stares and make him guilty for something that isn’t thereWhen the only one who’s guilty here is the one betraying with a kiss‘Cause you don’t love Him the way you loved Him the last time that you saw HimOh and tear him down with paragraphs and make all your wrongs seem rightOh you tear him down with paragraphs and make all you lies seem whiteNo you don’t love Him…

These Days Lyrics

Q: Go Burn City Hall To The Ground

A thousand times Ive waitedIve burned outFlushed with heartsI turn back after the fallAnd well watch them burnAshes slip through your fingersWhile you try to grasp what once was yoursBut your cries fall on deaf earsPlay with matches and people burnA thousand times Ive waitedIve burned outFlushed with heartsI turn back after the fallAnd well watch them burnYeah well watch them burnYeah well watch them burnYeah well watch them burnWhy deal me a hand in this?Its true I could have stopped itWas it even my place? To stop the start of the end?A thousand times Ive waitedIve burned outFlushed with heartsI turn back after the fallAnd well watch them burnWatch them burnWatch them burnWatch them burnWatch them burnWatch them burn(Watch them burn watch them burn) I know how you feel(Watch them burn watch them burn) Broken and bruised(Watch them burn watch them burn) I know that you are(Watch them burn watch them burn) Cold and usedYeah well watch them burnYeah well watch them burnYeah well watch them burnYeah well watch them burnYeah well watch them burnYeah well watch them... burn
