Lyrics:
I said I told you everything I left something out
Underneath the stairwell.
That I'm under lock and key, but you can probably tell
I'm a king of my... in a In prison cell
I wanna return but all you do is turn and sleep
If I can find my way home, will you take hold of me

I've been going so long
I can barely say
All I know is now I want to stay
Has it been too long since I went away?
Cause I'm trying to find the words, but I can barely say
Well I use to be the sun
Waiting silently but they barely noticed me
But I've been talking in my sleep when anybody sees they turn and run from
Me
I want to return but all you do is turn and sleep
If I can find my way home will you take hold of me?
Cause I've been going so long
I can barely say
All I know is I want to stay
Has it been too long since I went away?
Cause I'm trying to find the words but I can barley say
I wanted to run
I wanted to love and be loved in return
But will I ever get back, do I know too much to return.
I've been gone so long, I can barely say
All I know is now I wanna stay
Has it been too long since I went away cause I'm trying to find the
Words but I can barely say.
