Take me back the long way, send me down
Head against the window pane, sliding down
Take me back the long way, send me down
Head against the window pane, sliding down

I can cross the street on my own
I don't need my father's home
I am not concerned with a throne

I can tranquilise, leave my body inside
Settle down and blur the lines, away, away
I can only tranquilise, leave my lover tonight
Settle down and watch the lights away

Take me back the long way, send me down
Head against the window pane, sliding down
Take me back the long way, but never mind
Memory it tends to fade behind, behind, behind

I can't get to sleep on my own
This house has never felt like a home
In my lifetime

I can tranquilise, leave my body inside
Settle down and blur the lines, away, away
I can only tranquilise, leave my lover tonight
Settle down and watch the lights away
