Old cruel road, it never ends Tearing down every defense It leaves me, worthless Wandering, I’ve lost my way so many times From first breath to final rest I find the path always unwinds My sunken hopes are buried deep A revelation just beyond my reach And thus my journey’s brought me home again It’s not what it used to be Faded tracks recall my origins And rekindle memories Forsake that which I worshiped then A whole life in effigy Set foot on the cruel road again And pray this time will not leave me Wordless – the constant sting A future I will never know Forgotten loves left bitter tastes They died before a chance to grow Those days alone, fractured beliefs Left tattered scraps of former peace And thus my journey’s brought me home again It’s not what it used to be Faded tracks recall my origins And rekindle memories Forsake that which I worshiped then A whole life in effigy Set foot on the cruel road again And pray this time will not leave me Oh Wandering [?] Cannot let the old times be my captor The curse upon my life must be shattered Seize, control and slough away the shackles And tread the world unbowed Until my body collapses On the cruel road
