[Verse 1]
Held on to hope like a noose, like a rope
God and medicine take no mercy on him
Poisoned his blood, and burned out his throat
Enough is enough, he's a long way from home

[Verse 2]
Days of my youth wasted on a selfish fool
Who ran for the hills from the hand you were dealt
I flew far away, as far as I could go
Your time is running out
And I'm a long way from home

[Verse 3]
Laid up in bed, you were laid up in bed
Holding the pain like you're holding your breath
I prayed you could sleep, sleep like a stone
You're right next to me
But you're a long way from home

[Verse 4]
Hospital gowns nevеr fit like they should
We yеlled at the nurse, didn't do any good
More morphine, the last words you moaned
At last I was sure
That you weren't far away from home

The Lumineers is a band from New Jersey and formed in 2002. The original members consisted of Wesley Schultz and Jeremiah Fraites.

In 2009, the duo moved to Colorado to be able to concentrate on their music. After the addition of Neyla Pekarek on cello and vocals, the band released their first album—written by Schultz and Fraites—in 2012. Their first single, “Ho Hey,” quickly climbed to Number 1.

In 2016 they released their sophomore album, Cleopatra.
