The Unpaved Road

The Unpaved Road By Kevin Robey October 1, 2013 (Verse 1) This is the path that I choose Holed out shoes and tattooed rooms Decaying teeth out of favors to use Jagged runes are buried in tombs Falling tears turning into dust Blades seem so dull right now Sacrifice in blind faith I trust Finding life within this spooky town The wreckage strewn across the floor I found my heart under the floor boards I’m walking now straight out the door Leaving all the lessons I’ll can’t afford Chorus This is the life, this is the dream But now I’m bursting at the seams I’ll beg for change while I decide To Leave my dreams or swallow my pride (Verse 2) Can’t consider these intentions pure A burning desire to simply want more Just buying time to search for a cure Fighting demons that I’ve met before Spinning my wheels, what can I show? Paper and plaques hang on the walls Leading to places I passed long ago But don’t count me out, this isn’t a fall No this is the middle, the montage scene I can’t fast forward when I think of the past Presently I see my soul is finally clean Stay in the moment, however long it lasts (Chorus) This is the life, this is the dream But now I’m bursting at the seams I’ll beg for change while I decide To Leave my dreams or swallow my pride
