Been Away Too Long - Soundgarden

You can't go home no I swear you never can

You can walk a million miles and get nowhere

I got nowhere to go ever since I came back

Just filling in the lines for the holes and the cracks

Yeah

No one knows me

No one saves me

No one loves or hates me

I've been away for too long

This place has a special kind of falling apart

Like they put the whole thing together in the dark

No one knows where the edge of the knife is

And no one knows where intelligent life is

Yeah

No one knows me

No one saves me

No one loves or hates me

Going straight

I only ever really wanted a break

I've been away for too long

No I never really wanted to stay

I've been away for too long

I've been away for too long

I've been away for too long

Keyholes through keyholes

Windows through windows

Eyelets through eyelets

Everyone is silent

Tankards and flagons and snifters and boots on my way home

Going straight

I only ever really wanted a break

I've been away for too long

No I never really wanted to stay

I've been away going straight

I only ever really wanted a break

I've been away for too long

No I never really wanted to stay

I've been away for too long
