lyrics

Take the long way home And drive all night Take the long way home Until the street lamps fade Tell me who's alive In a world so foreign Tell me who will shine In this sick new order Tell me once, tell me to hide again I told you twice, that you were not my friend I can fix, I can stitch the ends “You'll break apart, when I'm missed” And I, I, Will not be found Down the block with all the cool kids in town No I'll be in the back doing my own stuff “Well you can always count on me, when things get a little rough” Tell me once, tell me to hide again I told you twice, that you were not my friend I can fix, I can stitch the ends “You'll break apart, when I'm missed” We're breaking the sun, your story works well Not easy to share, tell me Are we having fun? “I'm having all kinds With my white lies” Tell me once, tell me to hide again I told you twice, that you were not my friend I can fix, I can stitch the ends “You'll break apart, when I'm missed I'll be your bliss inside”
