Can't anybody see? you've got a war to fight
never found our way, regardless of what they say
How can it feel this wrong?
from this moment, how can it feel this wrong?
Storm in the morning light, I feel
no more can I say, frozen to myself
I got nobody on my side and surely that ain't right
and surely that ain't right
Can't anybody see? you've got a war to fight
never found our way, regardless of what they say
How can it feel this wrong?
from this moment, how can it feel this wrong?
Can't anybody see? you've got a war to fight
never found our way, regardless of what they say
How can it feel this wrong?
from this moment, how can it feel this wrong?

Disagreements ‒ they have killed the fire
Understanding ‒ forever's flown far away
Life's repressing ‒ all of my desires
Hopelessness ‒ eternally held at bay
Fading to grey
I have seen the path I need to follow
Time to energize
Today lasts only till tomorrow
And a king will rise
Bitterness ‒ so cruel it is out of my league
Loneliness ‒ I fall a thousand fathoms deep
Anger is ‒ dwelling in my restless mind
Here I stand ‒ both deaf and blind
But never I'll surrender!
Chase this rolling stone and see
Has it gathered greener moss?
One bridge lies ahead of me
Will it burn before I walk across?
I feel Like ‒ I'm walking towards the twilight now
Soothe me ‒ in my constant tiredness
Engines push me ‒ rapidly straight
Through the clouds
And erase ‒ my emptiness

Last night
Stopping by
Greeting me with an embracing bad breath
Five A.M.
you woke me out of a restless R.E.M.
I think it's time
To sober up and die
Now every little second is time
And every word seems to rhyme
I follow every word like streetlights
To make it home all right
Yeah
Now every little second just flies
I hold on to them like paradise
I follow every word like streetlights
I, I want to fall in love and leave tonight
Been riding in the sunset
Ignoring what follows after beauty
Fades to black now
Just riding in the sunset
Now this paralyzing cold
Always comes crawling back
I think it's time
To sober up and live
Now every little second is time
And every word seems to rhyme
I follow every word like streetlights
To make it home all right
Yeah
Now every little second just flies
I hold on to them like paradise
I follow every word like streetlights
I, I want to fall in love and leave tonight
Every little second is time
And every word seems to rhyme
I follow every word like streetlights
To make it home all right
Now every little second just flies
I hold on to them like pieces of paradise
I follow every word like streetlights

I call you they call you
Everyone's calling you my better half
I know you they don't do
Nobody will ever do and we don't care
I don't want to turn back the time
I don't want to follow the line
Still waiting not creating
Everything we do is better when we're two
Don't take it like I fake it
Everytime I try to say that i love you
I don't want to turn back the time
I don't want to follow the line
Because life is a road that is winding and dark
But i swear 'cross my heart so are you
Life is a road that is winding and dark
But i swear 'cross my heart so are you
Now you know it's true i believe in you
Yeah you know it's true I do care for you
I'm sorry you're sorry
But you can be sorry in a better way
It don't matter if I never
Never ever let you be the one I need
I don't want to turn back the time
I don't want to follow the line
Because life is a road that is winding and dark
But i swear 'cross my heart so are you
Because life is a road that is winding and dark
But i swear 'cross my heart so are you
So are you.....So are you......

Ohh, can't anybody see
We've got a war to fight
Never found our way
Regardless of what they say
How can it feel, this wrong
From this moment
How can it feel, this wrong
Storm.. in the morning light
I feel
No more can I say
Frozen to myself
I got nobody on my side
And surely that ain't right
And surely that ain't right
Ohh, can't anybody see
We've got a war to fight
Never found our way
Regardless of what they say
How can it feel, this wrong
From this moment
How can it feel, this wrong
How can it feel, this wrong
This moment
How can it feel, this wrong
Ohh, can't anybody see
We've got a war to fight
Never found our way
Regardless of what they say
How can it feel, this wrong
From this moment

Where you are right now
Isn't where I'm supposed to be, I know
But I entertain the thought
Promise I will make it brief and go
I'm gone
I'm gone
I'm gone
I won't stay by the side of the road
And just wait for another tomorrow
Maybe we could make it there by tonight
'Cause the road always seems too long
And the right turns sometimes feel wrong
But don't stop this time, this time
Everyone I pass
Feels the same way on a different street
Fall asleep for days
It's not envy if it's just a dream
I'm gone
I'm gone
I'm gone
I won't stay by the side of the road
And just wait for another tomorrow
Maybe we could make it there by tonight
'Cause the road always seems too long
And the right turns sometimes feel wrong
But don't stop this time
I'm gone
I'm gone
I'm gone
I'm gone
I'm gone
We're gone
I won't stay by the road
And wait for tomorrow
Maybe we could make it there by tonight
'Cause the road always seems too long
And the right turns sometimes feel wrong

The voice of loss is sighing through the rain
And as I turn around
Nothing is to be found
For hours now upon this endless road
Is it taking me
Where I long to be?
Alone
A soaring hope is reeling in my head
I can’t remember this
But it must be what I miss
Suddenly I find I’m standing still
Staring at the ground

There’s a light in the kitchen, somebody’s home
A woman is sleeping, a man sits alone
Alone, all alone.
Then comes the dawning
Then comes the morn
The woman is yawning
And daylight is born.
The roar of an engine
The coffee pot perks
Then off to the office to a room full of jerks
Again, once again
(Chorus)
I don’t know where I’m going but I’ll get there.
Sometimes I’m wondering where will it be?
On the Riviera
A man was painting Greece
The image that he captured- Hercules and the golden fleece
Again, once again
Evening came and found him
His paintings looking fine
He put away his brushes
And went out for some wine
Again, once again
Having met a woman
They went out for some air
He loved her like his paintings
And he wondered if she cared
Did she care?
(Chorus)
Now there is a farmer
With calloused hands and feet
The wagon wheel is busted
The kids have yet to eat, again
Once again.
They gathered at the table
With loving in their eyes
He looked at them contently
He looked at them he looked at them he looked at them
He looked at them with pride
Once again
And when the meal was over
He kissed them all goodnight
And sat down by the fire feeling everything was right
All right, once again
(Chorus)
This is a song about lifestyles
Decisions that we make
Roads that we abandon
And others that we take

Roads
Nameless roads
Where you takin' me to
Now we're movin' into country
These boots ain't traveled through
And I'm losing all my heart
By going on
But the point of no returning
Is long gone
Roads
Hungry roads
Something feels mighty wrong
First you came to own my body
Now you're out to get my soul
And I can't tell which is you
And which is me
And I only have the hope of feeling free
Everybody's calling out directions
Telling me which way I oughta go
Now I never had a mind
That took too kindly to direction
But lately I don't know
I just don't know
Roads
Lonesome roads
Are you anywhere bound
Does a man have to admit he's lost
Before he can be found
When the miles keep rolling by
And he's scared and he don't know why
Does he come right out and shout
I need a friend
Or does he let his roads
Just take him to the end

These roads were long, they’ve lead to dead ends.
The trials were hard and now we are not friends.
The hardest part, the hardest part?
Now we don’t talk, now we don’t write
and that's the part that I don’t like.
It’s for the best, I guess it’s for the best.
I’ll cut off my tongue to spite my mouth,
not talking getting much easier now.
We don’t talk as we...we have nothing left to say.
We had some good times but there’s been better days,
We’ve had problems we’ve solved in better ways.
Another empty song of how it all went wrong?
So I broke my fingers to spite my brain.
The words I typed always came out the same.
I’ll cut off my tongue to spite my mouth,
not talking getting much easier now.
We don’t talk as we...we have nothing left to say.
Please forgive me all my wrongs.
I’m only learning, yeah I’m only learning.
When you speak, you speak in tongues.
My ears burning, my ears are burning.
So I’m walking in circles, trying to find my way.
I’ll stop and bury my head, this is my resting place.
We all deal with problems in many different ways.
We all feel like this but don’t know what to say.
Pretty much useless, tired of my own excuses.
I’ll cut off my tongue to spite my mouth,
not talking’s that much easier now.

Slow cold and somber
Brushing the shores
Morning never comes
I turn into a prey
Fear thy dawning lights
Hear them drown
I've been calling for so long
In a wind of clay
Just like the smoke
I'm led away
Feeding frostbitten roads
Might heal a pain
No one hears
Just raven words
One might hear the rain
