The Only Road Songtext
The world was given by his hold gracethe hand of god must touch upon that placewe can't allow that kind of primitiveshow them the book and teach them how to liveTheir words were strange we didn't understandtwo men in black who had a holy manthey said that we must hear their sacred versewe didn't know if we were blessed or cursedThey said they'd come - they would build a roadwe'll burn your trees down we'll give you clothesteach your children how to read and writeour God will watch you each and every nightwe didn't want their God we had the sunour spirits moved inside of every oneThey were sleepingThey runed their light upon our innocencegave us pain - gave us no releasewe offered flowers to our spirit guidecan you help us for me must decideAre we sleepingThe answer came we heard it in the windthese men have lied and you have never sinnedthey're men like you - they know no better waygive them to me upon their seventh dayWhen they're sleepingAnd so it happened on the seventh nightwhen the moon was shining high and brightour people took them like the message saidour spirit happy that their god was deadNow they're sleeping
