Lyrics

The rain comes down
And falls around my feet
 I feel the world just crushing me 
Lights on the ridge and shines of the spire
 An endless life looking for a sign
On a road  Oh I’m on a road 
On a road  I’m on a road
 A road outta this town

One day the world will sing your song
 But first the world will do you wrong
 I soldiered on
And sang my way through hell
 Still sleeping rough on a bed of nails

On a road  Oh I’m on a road
 On a road  I’m on a road
 A road outta this town

I’ve hammered nails into this heart 
For maybe a while too long
 And I crushed my spirit and love in vain 
So I’ll meet you
On that great north road again

As I walk this wooden board of names
 Some that are living and some in graves
 I look above to a haunted sky 
Forever glowing forever high
Forever
 Forever
 Forever
 Forever
