Lyrics

this old house has got a name that I don’t know
big trees in the yard
the way highway sings like a ghost
through the light and the dark
I never listened to them quiet so close
to the passing cars
as when I thought they were a voice from god
telling me how far

I have gotten from home
I have gotten from home
how far I have gotten
I have gotten from home
I have gotten from home
how far I have gotten

something in the way that I hate myself sometime
makes it easier to try
being anybody but me myself or I dead or alive
well I was a ghost I was a ghost but I survived
I can still smell the death in the room
and I was running for my life
and I’m running still

I’ve been running for home
I’ve been running for home
how far I’ve been running
I’ve been running for home
I’ve been running for home
how far I’ve been running ~
