Million Miles Away

The Offspring · Conspiracy of One [2000]

There was a time, looking through myself

Wanting to pretend

If I escaped, I could fill myself

I don't think you can

Been far and wide, but that hole inside

Never really leaves

I went away, what I really left

Left behind was me



It's telling me

To be on my way

Home!

(Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh)

Million miles away

(Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh)

A million miles away

I can't stay, I can't stay

(Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh)

A million miles away



Each passing day, every passing face

Seems like such a blur

I long to be, home silently

Lying next to her

Just to get back, by her side is all

All I need to be

I went away, what I really left

Left behind was me



I need to be

Getting on my way

Home

(Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh)

Million miles away

(Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh)

A million miles away

I can't take, I can't take

(Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh)

A million miles away



It's telling me

To be on my way

Home!

(I can't take, I can't take)

Million miles away

(I can't take, I can't take)

Million miles away

(I can't take, I can't take)

Million miles away

(I can't take, I can't take)

Million miles away

(Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh)

(There was a time, looking through myself, wanting to pretend)

(I can't take, I can't take)

Million miles away

(Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh)

(If I escaped, I could fill myself, I don't think you can)

(I can't take, I can't take)

Million miles away

(Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh)

(Each passing day, every passing face, seems like such a blur)

(I can't take, I can't take)

Million miles away

(Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh)

(I long to be, home silently, lying next to her)

(I can't take, I can't take)

Million miles away
