lyrics

I took away the wheels you use for rolling
I took away the shoes you need for strolling
I took away the hands that help in controlling

The fingers you use when you need to make a call
I take the 'em away when I don't want to take 'em at all

And I'm wonderin' how long until you come home

I threw away my watch that I never use
I gave up the bottle that I tend to abuse
I blew out my mind every single fuse

I feel like I'm living and dying all at once
The years I'm living are passing away like months

And I'm wonderin' how long until you come home

I'm waiting for the winter but it's only early spring
I want to live longer but it feels like it's only a fling
I care too much about every single thing

I work so proudly just to reach the run of the mill
And I'm strugglin' just to pay last month's bill

So forget about that emergency phone call dream
There's no need to hear the street siren scream
I'm not asking for anything extreme

I'm just wondering how long until you come home
