THE HARD ROAD TO HEAVEN

Remember as a kid you would read tales with a 'moral'. Well this is one of them. In any conflict someone has to break the cycle.

I asked my friend Sean 'What do you do when you're wronged?'
'I laugh and forgive' was his answer
So easily spoken but his poor heart was broken
By a girl with two faces from Stavanger
Now the old bridge is breaking and these shards that I'm taking
To stick in some fink in North Athens
It's a city I love but they cull all the doves
Of desire, any fire, any passions
But you'd better not get lost
Better not get even
You'll just count the cost
On your skin, in your soul
On a hard road to heaven
So stare down defeats, watch the world in repeats
As the evil men ravage the valleys
And the honey tongued darlings will be unmasked in the morning
When Rasputin breaks loose in the alleys
I'll be the sinner, you be the saint
Who's got the faults here? Who got the feints here?
Who lives by the light
Of that committee shining up there not so very very very bright?
So spell out the end to your fair weather friends
For I see that the meadows are frosting
Yeah get up and go anticipate the snow
That will sweep in and fill up their dead rooms
