It's the beginning of a timeless play
The world's out your window
And the skies are grey
Caught in the middle between quick and slow
The best you can hope for
Is a worthy cameo
Every day's a struggle just to be heard
You keep lookin for an answer
But the lines are blurred
Life's still a riddle and no-one knows
If the clock's gonna stop
When the cruel wind blows
Who's gonna carry the load
Headin down that lonesome road
Another mile of misery
And no-one there to wait for me
Why'd you have to make it so hard
Can't solve a puzzle without a clue
There's no holdin back the tide
When it breaks on through
There's a river that twists and turns
And a fire in the sunset
That slowly burns
Who's gonna carry the load
Headin down that lonesome road
Another mile of misery
And no-one there to wait for me
Who's gonna carry the load
Headin down that lonesome road
There's darkness over the land
But I'll never understand
Why you had to make it so hard
