lyrics

It happens on a day when everything's fine,
I know how it works,
I own it, it's mine,
And the fear just becomes anesthetic for pain,
Oh god, that I can't sustain,
It's a long way back from the dead.

After the fact so surreal I'm still around,
And just off the ship,
And kissing the ground,
Prepped for disaster,
When it doesn't come,
then you are left,
All speechless and numb,
Take the long way back from the dead.

And even now I remain looking,
For bony hands to pull me back,
Got a reprieve but it doesn't make sense,
My guilt is assuaged by some relief and some ignorance,
I took the long way back from the dead.

So take the long way back from the dead,
I had a moribund scenic route stuck in my head,
The long way back from the dead.
