The world turns underneath me The first mile turns to two After a few, I forget Just what I'm heading into And I can't turn around No u-turns allowed And I have to say, I keep forgetting Where did you say my life was heading to?
When I look around Can't help to think of things I haven't found And that was five long miles ago Will things ever change? It's up to me to rearrange Get back to five long miles ago
The world churns underneath me A thousand miles from you Same things to do, I start regretting Someone remind me what I've turned into 'Cause I can't turn around No u-turns allowed This is a one-way bullet train And the next destination doesn't have a name
Stay the course, stay on the track Stay alive, no turning back
When I look around Can't help to think of things I haven't found And that was five long miles ago Will things ever change? It's up to me to rearrange Get back to five long miles ago Nothing puts me at ease No one to share responsibilities And that was five long miles ago Navigating open seas May be beyond my capabilities Get back to five long miles ago
