Taken down another road of hope
At which end lies one more hangman's rope
The scaffolding of joy is all too plain
What's to lose if there's nothing to gain?
And so it seems shattered dreams is all I know
Still beyond the pain to be endured
Beyond the roads of death so pure
The shards of what was long ago
Stay to make a treacherous road
Or so they say but that's okay, I'll still get by
So they say, that's okay, I'll still get by
At which end lies one more hangman's rope
The scaffolding of joy is all too plain
What's to lose if there's nothing to gain?
And so it seems shattered dreams is all I know
Still beyond the pain to be endured
Beyond the roads of death so pure
The shards of what was long ago
Stay to make a treacherous road
Or so they say but that's okay, I'll still get by
So they say, that's okay, I'll still get by
