There's a road that leads to God knows where And the Angels don't guard it, and the demons don't care The signs the guide you lie to you so hide or they will find you There's a road that leads to God knows where There's a statue of stone pointing home With a crow on the shoulder, but the head is gone How would it know the way, frozen in decay There's a statue of stone pointing home There's a forest singin' a chorus through the trees The spirits in the lyrics whisper you make beliefs The song belongs to you but you're out of touch and out of tune There's a forest singin' a chorus through the trees There's a cave with engravings of fortunes told Hectic breath crystallizes in the dampened cold The echos start to take on a voice all of their own There's a cave with engravings of fortunes told There's a castle that can block out the stars With marvelous markings locked out by the guards There's a wall that won't come down, a warning written in the clouds There's a castle that can block out the stars There's a kingdom built on what you think should be And in it there's a king who fancies himself free But at the end of his reign he'll be beheaded or enslaved There's a kingdom built on what you think should be There's a mob with the mentality of war With views skewed to a sword to settle up the score You can silently abhor or speak up and be ignored There's a mob with the mentality of war There's a memory of better times forgotten Now the fresh picked fruit is all spoiled and rotten And an effigy can never be a replacement for the energy For the memory of better times forgotten The monster in me's sinkin' in his teeth Claws are thrashin' at the person that I long to be I know no growth so show no remorse for me As the monster in me sinks in his teeth The God you worship's startin' to grow horns So kill your idols before they kill themselves in cruciform Before you can mourn idle hands begin to form Into the playthings of whom you've been warned So sing to me as I drift off to sleep Tell me that you love me and kiss me on the cheek Stick a blade in my rib cage, unlock it and let me free Wear a dress of red to my funeral and curse me quietly
