A thousand miles from home
A dusty road
Sowed my holy ghost
A rooted post
I should've stopped
To take a breath for you, dear
My walls were stuck
And I was peddling fear
We screwed it up and tipped it off
Three times the sin had broke
Why can't I slow down
We dreamed it off and lived it soft
In time the seed had grown
And now we know
But I'm not going home
A walk into the cold
A final show
A restless need to know
In a tangled world
I should've stopped
To take a breath for you, dear
We fell in love
When love was still so unclear
We chewed it up and lived it out
The fever that I stoked
With every color
The hollow wish, the feeling missed
The child in me shows
The more I grow
But I'm not going home
