Hello freedom, do you know me?
I speak for the common man
There's no escaping d**h and taxes
But I could use your helping hand, oh yeah
And I may lose my way home
While I'm looking in the wrong direction
And I know I'm not alone
So I do the best I can
As I begin again to
Walk the long way home, no, no, no
Hello heaven, can you see me?
I'm the one who's hard to find
Look inside the homeless shelters
Those victims in that hunger line, oh yeah
And I may lose my way home
While I'm looking in the wrong direction
And I bleed down to the bone
Will you help my wounds to heal
So we can carry on
And walk the long way home, no, no
I still bleed down to the bone
Will you help my wounds to heal
So we can carry on
And walk the long way home, no
'Cause I may lose my way home
While I'm looking in the wrong direction
If I knew my way home
