Switchfoot is an alternative rock band from San Diego, California. The band was formed in 1997 with the brothers Jonathan Foreman (lead singer/guitarist) and Tim Foreman (bass). Long-time friend Chad Butler (drums) joined soon after. Eventually the band evolved to what it is today with the addition of members Jerome Fontamillas (key/guitar/electronics - formerly of Mortaland Fold Zandura) and Drew Shirley (guitar - formerly of All Together Separate). Although the band started out playing at Christian music festivals, they shun the label of "Christian rock," with singer and guitarist Jon Foreman saying, "For us, it's a faith, not a genre.

Switchfoot

It's a long way from Miami to L.A.
It's a longer way from yesterday to where I am today.
It's a long way from my thoughts to what I’ll say.
It's a long long way from paradise to where I am today.

All that's in my head is in Your hands.

It's a long way from the moon up to the sun.
It's a longer road ahead of me, the road that I’ve begun.
Stop to think of all the time I’ve lost,
Start to think of all the bridges that I’ve burned that must be crossed.

Over, over, over,
Take me over

I've been poison, I've been rain.
I've been fooled again.
I've seen ashes shine like chrome.
Someday I’ll see home.

Home...
Home...

I can see the stars from way down here.
But I can't fall asleep behind the wheel.

It's a long way from the shadows in my cave
Up to Your reality.
To watch the sunlight taking over, over.
Taking over.
Take me over.

I've been poison, I've been rain.
I've been fooled again.
I've seen ashes shine like chrome.
Someday I'll see home.

All that's in my head is in Your hands.
If it's in my head, it's in Your hands.
It's in my head, it's in Your hands.
It's in Your hands...
