I think of the days
I was thrilled by this road ahead
When the moment won over
what was to come
Not afraid of the distance
but the distance afraid of me
Everytime I made it there
I found nothing
The distance was gone
Now I don't wanna fade
But I ain't gonna run
I'm resting my head
on these stones
God what have you done
to you and me
I'm tired of scaring
the future away
No road ahead the fire is dead
Father don't you see
in front of you
Is what the chase has left of me
If only they told me
What the kerbside
was hiding away
Where the angels from high
street didn't want to go
And a heartbeat is forced
To resign to the glory
of a commonplace
I am jaded
I don't wanna see
what's becoming of me
Here's a bit
Then spare me this sight now
Cut it out I'm tired of
the future myself
I don't wanna fade
but I ain't gonna run
I'm resting my head
on these stones
God what have you done
to you and me
I'm tired of scaring
the future away
No road ahead
the fire is dead
Father don't you see
In front of you
is what's left of me
God and glory torn to pieces
No no it's just the spirit
of the times
I'm drawn to a flame
that won't release me
Release me
And I see a thousand
who wait in line
I don't wanna face
what I ain't gonna stand
Now roll last my head
on these stones
God what have you done
Look at yourself
I'm tired of scaring
the future away
The dark road ahead
the fire is dead
Father don't you see
what you have made of me
