Long Way Home
i have a long awalk home its really dark.the sky is hovering over me like a swarm of bees.
silence fills the quiet streets as i walk faster to get home.
everyone has a destination just some dont knoe where to go.
ive been here and there but always come home.
home is where the heart is when your all alone it doesnt matter if your under a bridge or in a
bathroom.
peolpe spend there lives working everyday hoping to get married and start a family.
what causes such madness that lirks beneath the flesh someone will be lonely lying next to
you in bed.
cars drive by me but dont stop to offer a ride there more afraid of me than i am of them.
my feet are covered with blisters from rubbing aganist the soles but i need to get home.
im thirsty and hungry but have no money to eat a sacrafice i made just to see you tonight.
im tired and restless all at the same time but i need to keep moving so i dont wilt and die.
it seems like ages since i last took a nap but as soon as i get weary i know that i cant slack.
a couple hours left to go and i shoul be right there i can envision myself lying on that great
big soft chair.
im approaching my destination and the white pearly gates hoping theyll welcome me home
and fogive my every sin.
