The Long Way Around..

Here is one of my favourite songs, deep lyrics, good sounds and inspiring.

I don't know what to say about these days

I'm seeing people changing in the strangest ways Even in the richer neighborhoods

People don't know when they've got it good They've got the envy, and they've got it bad

When I was a kid everything I did was trying to be free Running up and down Tinsel Town with the fire inside of me My planets all in retrograde, the best of all my plans got laid I made my breaks, and some mistakes Just not the ones people think I made

Now I'm a long way gone Down this wild road I'm on It's going to take me where I'm bound But it's the long way around

It's a little hard keeping track of what's gone wrong The covenant unravels, and the news just rolls along I could feel my memory letting go some two or three disasters ago It's hard to say which did more ill Citizens United or the Gulf oil spill

And I'm a long way gone Down this wild road I'm on It's going to take me take me where I'm bound But it's the long way around

It's never been that hard to buy a gun Now they'll sell a Glock 19 to just about anyone The seeds of tragedy are there In what we feel we have the right to bear To watch our children come to harm There in the safety of our arms With all we disagree about The passions burn, the heart goes out
