Long Road Back Songtext
von Summer of ’92

Searching for signs of the sun
Through a twelve by four slot in a concrete wall
The air so thick with violence
You could almost choke on it

I′ve been down

I open my eyes in the morning
The steel bars remind me just how low it can get
I sit on my bunk and read a letter
Sent from rural route number one


You're too cold to cry and it′s a fight to get by
I've been down but not out
I can't stop thinking of you, it′s all that gets me through
I′ve been down but not out

This time is unforgiving
For the first time my memories mean nothing
This time is unforgiving
For the first time my memories mean everything

I've been down

I can still smell the perfume you sprayed on those letters
I close my eyes let your smile take me home
Times like this can kill the best of us
It′s a long road back
