Lyrics Long Time Comin' - Taking Back Sunday

There's a symphony out past the trees beyond your father's house
The one you grew up in, then grew out of
Got yourself to higher ground
You told me you ain't gonna miss it
But you'll never hear it like you heard it then
Like you heard it then

I didn't mean to wake you
All I know is lately, the walls are caving in
I didn't mean to wake you
I left a note that read, "These walls are caving in"

Well, halfway out of town loading your father's father's gun
The one he smuggled back from Germany after the war was won
You told me he ain't gonna miss it
But he'll serve his purpose like he did back then
Just like he did back then
Besides, he ain't around to miss it
And he'll never hear it like he heard it then
Not like he heard it then

I didn't mean to wake you
All I know is lately, the walls are caving in
I didn't mean to wake you
I left a note that read, "These walls are caving in"

Oh, oh, these walls are caving in
The walls are caving in
