Lonely Road Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Not taking note of the fools or the wise
Being a pawn of time and chance
Not making vows when the flood waters rise
Is simpler than nails through your hands

[Verse 2]
Being a slave to the sultans of grief
Keeping the hand to the plow
Being held captive to public belief
Is easier than thorns through your brow

[Chorus]
And it's a lonely road
And it's a lonely road
And it's a lonely road
That the Son of Man walks down

[Verse 3]
Being immune to the war of the heart
And never wondering why
To bury the conflict deep in the dark
Is safer than spears through your side

[Chorus]
And it's a lonely road
And it's a lonely road
And it's a lonely road
That the Son of Man walks down

[Verse 4]
For him who burns with a creed and a flame
Words are as smoke on the wind
Some kind of volatile helplessness reigns
And can't fill the hearts of his kin

[Verse 5]
To go and enlighten the doomed and unwashed
Seized with the art of sacrifice
To carry the weight of a martyr-at-large
Is easier than giving your life

[Chorus]
And it's a lonely road
And it's a lonely road
It's a lonely road
That the Son of Man walks down

And it's a lonely road
And it's a lonely road
It's a lonely road
That the Son of Man walks down
