The Flower Kings
Road To Sanctuary
Walk with me as long as we're together
Get your tickets to what is forever
Trades in loyalty and disengagement
First make sure that your business is hellbent
Then you're alone with the ghosts of the night
One road may lead you to sanctuary
Seeking the price of your heart and soul
You're still in doubt
Step aside and you look at this rat race
Get some more to stuff in your fuzzface
Clear contender for wasting the best years
Your goldplated bones may rattle forever
Then you're alone with the dogs at the gate
One road may lead you to sanctuary
They'll still be playing hockey in Hell
You're still in debt
On the fields of green and gold
On the hills out there in my mind
That we watched and we played and we danced
That was all pictured in the sun
Words, and thoughts and play that you constantly gave to me
Did I stop, did I stay, did I think what the world would be?
How I've tried to define
What is love, in my mind
As we pass what is now
This "now" is suddenly history
Sliding through the days, making notes of a different kind
Did I stop, did I pray, did I love unconditionally?
How hard to face you never see the breaking point
There's nothing such as finalized, we all must carry on
If time is constant rulers set the time, the time of day
But it hurts and it aches but it shines, and it celebrates
