This Road Leads To Heaven

from Solomon's Gold by nicholas gurney

/

lyrics

This road leads to heaven
That road leads to hell
The other road leads to nowhere
As far as I can tell
Leave behind your worries
Leave behind your cares
Climb on board this brief excursion
Be born again, a full conversion
Who knows where it will lead
Who knows where it will end
One things sure we've never been here before
I hope that we don't come again

Lies and outright deception
The truth gone up in flames
The the only truth now is money
But the money's just not the same
Leave behind your squeamish conscience
Leave behind your qualms
Take this pill you'll feel elation
Express your righteous indignation
Who knows where it will lead
Who knows where it will end
One things sure we've never been here before
And I hope that we don't come again

When I was a boy, the flags were hung out, for the empire
The greatest thing was god and queen and the gunfire
But all I see is a trail of misery
The smell of cordite, the shame of our history
One things for sure we shouldn't have done that before
At least we're too weak to do it again
