I got a feeling everything is gonna go down hill
And it's gonna go fast
So I, I started picturing the promises in someone else's greener grass
The wind was blowing like a thousand angels
They got something to say
And then the charms quit charming
And then the wind went dying on me
It went dying on me
You see it's gonna start raining now
And there ain't nothing 'bout it we could do
So I'ma go my way and you can go 'bout yours
And do whatever with whatever you think is true
You see, see I've been where the demons walk
And I listened to the spirit talk
And you're nothing like me and I sure ain't nothing like you
But it gets cold when you have to
Take the long way home, the long way home
And there ain't no street going down my path
But there ain't no hand that's gonna make me fold
And troubles come and go and they're gone for now
But I feel I'm coming back around
I gotta feeling everything just went down hill
And it sure went fast
So I, I started picking up the promises
And I went walking away from the past
That demon sitting on my shoulder still talks to me now and then
But I'm doing my best to not blame you
And I'm doing my best to not give in
It gets cold when you have to take
The long way home, the long way home
And there ain't no street going down my path
But there ain't no hand that's gonna make me fold
It gets cold when you have to take
The long way home, the long way home
And there ain't nobody gonna help you now
It's the simple things you learned from being alone
And troubles come and go and they're gone for now
