Roads That Take You Nowhere
I:
Roads that take you nowhere,
A home that leaves you broke and scared.
Chorus:
Laughs in summer and thunderstorms,
Sounds I fear I'll hear no more.
My God, I think I'm going deaf,
The stress, the pressure, I'm a mess.
V1:
No smiles in the hall I walk,
There's storm clouds with no rain.
Darkness in every corner I see,
Alive, feeding off pain.
V2:
Check out my credentials,
I've got more than just potential.
A long, long history,
Of being what you want to see.
Chorus --->
V3:
I'm on roads that take me nowhere,
Not even a dead end.
I walk memory lane every day,
And pray for a break in this trend.
V4:
The lights on this street,
Are as dim as the night.
I light a candle to see,
But still nothing looks right.
