Sad Eyes

there's a highway bound for glory just the beginning or the start of its story we search for truth out of a garbage can one blade of grass swaying in the wind where do I even begin again there are lines being drawn in the sand when will we ever understand the Willow tree sways in the wind golden nuggets of thoughts to gather prepare for the great here after as the sound of glass shatters Sad eyes look the other way stay inside never to come out to play we built are city of rock & roll through the roll of the dice with the beat of the tempo telling me where it is to go yet deep inside we want to run and hide to afraid to expose our true selves perhaps you want to put that book back on its shelf when will we ever learn one soul soars while the other will burn its a choice we make whether we win or lose now which pathway in life will you choose ?
