Lyrics
4 Lonely Roads
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.
Four lonely roads
The terror it had flown
Never led you home
Four lonely roads
Got sunk into my heart
Then it fell apart
Staring with an idle eye
Measuring the pain inside
Darker hell stood up on high
Then disappeared without reply
Four lonely roads
I'm trapped inside the skin
Can't let love back in
Four lonely roads
The cities drunk and mute
Lost in your pursuit
(I tell them this)
Staring with an idle eye
Measuring the pain inside
Darker hell stood up on high
Then disappeared without reply
I don't know why
(Three, four)
And if we can
Then we must
Hold our heads up
Learn to trust
It's up to you
It's up to us
Some dignity
A little love
A little love
