I drive these streets alone in silence

Another ride, trying to clear my head

But all I hear is just the beat of my heart

I think of her but I see you instead



And there's a thousand little lies

A thousand little reasons

For me to stay, for me to go

And there's a thousand little voices

Inside my head saying

Take the long way home



I tell myself that it's all over

But then I see you and I just don't know

What should I listen to my heart or my mind?

Too tired to think about the way I should go



And there's a thousand little lies

A thousand little reasons

For me to stay, for me to go

And there's a thousand little voices

Inside my head saying

Take the long way home



There's no one out there when you need to decide

And you're on your own

You keep on thinking 'bout the wrong that you've done

You try to hide but there's just no place to run



And there's a thousand little lies

A thousand little reasons

For me to stay, for me to go

And there's a thousand little voices

Inside my head saying

Take the long way home



And there's a thousand little lies

A thousand little reasons

For me to stay, for me to go

And there's a thousand little voices

Inside my head saying

Take the long way home
