Been Away Too Long (Live from the Artists Den)

One, Two, Three, Four

Can't go home, no I swear you never can
You can walk a million miles and get nowhere
I got nowhere to go ever since I came back
Just filling in the lines from the holes to the cracks

No one knows me
No one saves me
No one loves or hates me
I've been away for too long

This place has a special kind of falling apart
Like they put the whole thing together in the dark
And no one knows where the edge of the knife is
And no one knows what intelligent life is

And no one knows me
No one saves me
No one loves or hates me
But it's fate
I only ever really wanted a break
I've been away for too long
Though I never really wanted to stay
I've been away for too long
(I've been away for too long)
I've been away for too long

Kilos through keyholes
Widows through windows
Pilots through eyelets
Everyone is silent
Tankards and flagons and snifters
And flutes on my way home

But it's fake
I only ever really wanted a break
I've been away for too long
Though I never really wanted to stay
I've been away but it's fake
I only ever really wanted a break
I've been away for too long
Though I never really wanted to stay
I've been away for too long
Hey!

Thank you
