lyrics

6. The Dark End of the Road

When the light won’t break
and that thunderous sound
of the rain and sleet come falling down
The wind won’t stop
That melody is a whispered voice
and now the music has ceased

Looking back now
It was just another misstep
A calling that we missed
A day of reckoning
That took us miles and miles
With miles more to go
Down the dark end of the road
in the wrong direction

When the means to an end
Still don’t make ends meet
And these wildflowers can’t grow through the concrete

In my eleventh hour
The night it wouldn’t sleep
The promise I can’t keep
Or help from losing
We went miles and miles
With miles more to go
Down the dark end of the road
in the wrong direction

The wrong direction
But it got us where we need to be
It took our heart, our home, and stole our pride
From the dark end of the road to the other side

Looking back now
It was just another misstep
A calling that we missed
A day of reckoning
That took us miles and miles
With miles more to go
Down the dark end of the road
in the wrong direction
