Long Way Home

Wherever we go we carry the weight of the world in tow We're trying to find a river to wash away our crimes But all we see is what we already know It's dangerous ahead and it's a long way home The road that we run is riddled with snares and tempests that blow The sky has grown dark over all And the mountains are buried in snow I'll carry you if you cannot go on It's dangerous ahead and the road is long And time keeps ticking, slipping away Will we make it through the day? I'll do my best to carry the weight And help you escape And all we see is what we already know It's dangerous ahead and it's a long way home
