Road Weary


May 12, 2002

Woken by the sound of the falling rain
Road weary soul and a half dead brain
Just keep moving, gotta carry on
From the whipcrack coming at the break of dawn

Silent Sermon!
The pain in a crying angel's eyes
Dead Conviction!
Pretend to love what I despise
Vindication...
Find the answers in your mind
Condemnation!
That's the hardest one to find
And you look through the window in your soul
And the stress of the road starts to take its toll
Still very sick and getting pale
Am I the one who's doomed to fail?

Silhoutte in the morning sun
Justice with the barrel of a gun
Instinct tells me I'm the one
To purify the cloudy sky
I feel the wind upon my face
as I think about the human race
As we live and die in this dreary place
I've lost my iron will to kill
< A silent babe for a priest to bless
Can it survive life's fresh duress
Or will it feel Death's sweet caress
And pass away this lonely day?

I feel the burn upon the road
And the icy asphault frozen cold
I'm travel sick and growing old
I'm running on empty...
The warrior will seize the day
The scholar tells him what to say
The wizard works his magic ways
To make a beast look like a prince..
Another long day draws to a close
But the Devil still cries and the grass still grows
And everyone wonders but no one knows
How can we live forever?
