Who built the road   That left in my self esteem   Twisted and crunched   Black metal and bones      Who passed the buck   Who pressed flesh to yours   Spilling like wine    And sweeter than tears      (Oh, I'll do more than survive   With trembling visions that   Terrify)      So who built the road   Who turned it all around   Picked through the wreck   Scrambled in the dust      So who built the road   Who was the foolish one   Stepped out of time   Two hearts in the fire      Who lit the touch   Who fanned the flame   With sparks in the dust   Spent rivers of desire      (Oh, why don't we learn from mistakes   We stumble along with so many more to make)      So who built the road   Who could foresee    The answers we sought    Were many miles to go      Lah lah...      We were so lonely at times   Fading away    Sitting side by side   Now we built the road   We were the chain gang   We crossed that at war   The devil at my side   Dark angel within   The ever lasting fire      Lah lah...
