Roads End

Lyrics by Wilton. Music by Powell, Evertson, and Wilton. Arranged by Dwarf Nebula.

Came to the end of the road one day, I was surprised to see it too.
Here I’d been runnin’ on fumes for a while, determined to drive right on through.

Nowhere to go but straight down or up. I stood there beside myself
But reely I’d just spun my wheels for a spell. All the road; my conveyor belt.

But now I’ve come round to truth that I’ve found ‘bout the journey that each of us takes
The only time we really start to gain some ground is when we learn from our mistakes

Chorus:

So…
It's about embracing your demons; reaching beyond their behavior.
It’s the last thing they’ll expect from you: They might even thank you for the favor.

Every dream has to start somewhere. Gotta find the courage and see the spark
It’s easy to spot the train blowing full steam; Would you know it when it’s parked?


To break the pattern, maybe make tread marks, got to learn to read the road
Recognize how many times we’ve passed this way: Groove way down into your sole

And if your path should form ice sheets of fear. High time we melted them with love.
No longer need you dwell in the depths of your faults if you’re headed for the yonder above.

So when I caught myself at the end of the road, sight stretched to miles long gone.
I was ready then to ring in the changes that can come with each new dawn.

(Chorus:)
