Jeff Lang – Road Leads Down lyrics

Map the crooked tangle of sin
would take eternity to unravel
the rarefied air is thin
unbreathed down in the rabble
it's all wrong, it's taken so long
to build this road that leads down

If you're not a silver but a tin
you fill your bucket up with gravel
so well-trained to think this has been
the only path we could ever travel
it's all wrong, it's taken so long
to build this road that leads down

Last fair deal's gone down
it's false hope on which we're feeding
grab a neckhold on the motherlode
cut its gut and leave it bleeding
it's all wrong, it's taken so long
to build this road that leads down

it's all wrong, it's taken so long
to build this road that leads down
