I took the long way home But it led to the same apartment Where no one's paid the phone bill And no one really cares When will that road Go somewhere beautiful And somewhere safe? 'Cause around here everybody's Trying to find someone to be Every guy's trying to find respect In the eyes of a girl Who just wants to be loved We're children playing with guns Children playing with hearts And we go on We drive out of the city Sometimes you've just got to leave And scream out at the dark night Hoping we believe what we believe Cause it all seems too simple And it all seems too wild And our question grow in number And their answers loom with fear But still we ask and we trust you Because you've held us here With chains of grace and longing Longing to be loved and longing to be known And we go on All this reaching, still no grasping Faith is there but time is passing Are the answers in the asking Where the weak become the strong? All I want is to be someone All I want it to be real All I want is to feel alive All I want is to be with you I don't know what I think that means I want an awful lot it seems And we go on
