lyrics

Travelling back home from the life I have on loan,
Travelling back ho--me from the life I have on loan,
To the man in the big tower


Never Felt this alone , man I can feel it in my bones
From my head to my toes , someone stole my soul
She’s not gonna wait forever


Ya see the man from that big tower I feel his pain,
He tries to be tough and he tries strong
But justLike me hes sad and alone


And we both ride the same slow train drinking as we go
Every bump in the track the more whiskey that flows
Both in love with girls who we leave in pain


How high is that ivory tower , what the price for fame?
How many people did it cost you for everyone to know your name?
Our money is different but our pain is just the same


We’re Travelling back home from the life we have on loan,
Travelling back ho--me from the life we have on loan,
To the man in the sky above till he cuts us down
