A MILLION MILES FROM HOME

A MILLION MILES FROM HOME

How lost am in all the faces that I have known 
No roads remain to places I thought I’d outgrown
But pull me back ‘cross space and time
Before grief shapes my bones

I may fade away 
Grow fainter everyday 
I’ve drifted and I’ve strayed 
A million miles from home

I’m battle-worn, I need somewhere warm and safe 
I see your love on a map my fingers can trace
So pull me back  ‘cross space and time 
Else my soul will abandon me

I may fade away 
Grow fainter everyday 
I’ve drifted and I’ve strayed 
A million miles from home

With its silent prayer 
Tangled  in despair 
My broken angel with its wings of glass
Neglects me 
Rejects me

I may fade away 
Grow fainter everyday 
I’ve drifted and I’ve strayed 
A million miles from home

The song explores distance with quiet restraint, drifting through loneliness rather than surrendering to melodrama. Its recurring “million miles” imagery transforms separation into something vast and cosmic, capturing not just the feeling of missing someone, but of becoming untethered entirely. It's ultimately a song about emotional exile.
