Nathan Chavez - The Long Way Round

I'm finding myself the long way round
It's where I'm meant to be, so I'm homeward bound
You don't know me yet, but you'll know my sound
I'm coming home the long way round
I used to sit and wonder if
There was any more to this
If it was: learn, work, and die
Would I be satisfied
When the rains came from the clouds above
Giving ground away; turning push into shove
The answer isn't in a book
I learned you've got to take a second look
Can you tell me why all these gems shine dead
Can you tell me where all these roads will end
Only then you'd maybe see
It's a mystery
I'm finding myself the long way round
It's where I'm meant to be, so I'm homeward bound
You don't know me yet, but you'll know my sound
I'm coming home the long way round
You can say I'm impatient
I've spent enough time on fools
Who thought they knew what I should do
Didn't think I'd break my mold
See I don't want to be a bitter man
I want to age into a better man
I want to live for the sake of living
And give for the sake of giving
Can you tell me why all these gems shine dead
Can you tell me where all these roads will end
Only then you'd maybe see
What I see
I'm finding myself the long way round
It's where I'm meant to be, so I'm homeward bound
You don't know me yet, but you'll know my sound
I'm coming home the long way round
When the light is bleeding out
And the world grows cold
Where do we go
When the future's fading
And everything's dying out
Where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go now
If the world is burning from the sins of the past
Where do we go
If the world is turning upside down
Where do we go
Can you tell me why all these gems shine dead
Can you tell me where all these roads will end
Only then maybe you'll see
What I see
It's what I see
It's a mystery
When the world is burning
Yet everything feels cold
Where do we go
Where do we go
When everyone's angry
And the love is nowhere to be found
Where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go
Where do the children that inherit the world go
I'm finding myself the long way round
It's where I'm meant to be so I'm homeward bound
You don't know me yet, but you know my sound
And I'm coming home the long way round
I was running round, round in circles
And I couldn't find it
Now I'm screaming loud
Yes singing loud
Whoa
Whoa
Mmmhmm
Can you tell me why all these gems shine dead
Can you tell me where all these roads will end
Only then you'd maybe see
What I see
I'm finding myself the long way round
It's where I'm meant to be, so I'm homeward bound
You don't know me yet, but you know my sound
And I'm coming home the long way round
