Lyrics
Sittin' on the doorstep of a
Local tavern that puts a dent in me
Just contemplating
Who I was in nineteen-ninety-three
So I take stock
Of the baggage I've accrued in a lifetime of
Going to school
Going to work, waking up to do it again
Taking the long way home (4 times)
Breaking my back
To carve out my own identity
Summon of the strength so I can
Toil on relentlessly, uh huh
Taking the long way home (4 times)
Two paths lay before
One is full promise
The other frought with danger, but a
Voice inside is telling me...
Take the long way home (4 times)
