Lyrics
Man's Road
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Horizon rising up to meet the purple dawn
Dust demon screaming bring an eagle to lead me home
For in my heart I carry such a heavy load
Here I am on Man's road
Walking Man's road, ho
Walking Man's road
Walking Man's road, ho
I'm hungry, and I'm weary, but I cannot lay me down
And the rain falls, dreary, and there's no comfort that I have found
It will be such a long time till I find my abode
Here I am on Man's road
Walking Man's road, ho
Walking Man's road
Walking Man's road, ho
Horizon disguising lonely streets in gay displays
The stars fade and the night shade closes and makes the day afraid
It waits in silence for the night to explode
Here I am on Man's road
Walking Man's road, ho
Walking Man's road
Walking Man's road, ho
