lyrics

feeling like your life's been going a million miles an hour
careening down the road out of control
dad says go to college, get a degree, get a job, and raise a family, the sleep beneath the snow

And at the end of the road
will i find it's paved in gold, or that of fools?

Working 9 - 5 for several months then several years,
sooner or later i will just get used to it
oh who i am kidding, if there's something more fulfilling, let me at it
I've got too much now to quit
to quit

And at the end of the road
will i find it's paved in gold, or that of fools?

Am i wasting time,
or walking right
help me find my way over to the other side!
help me find my way over to the other side!

Like a wounded solider
lying bleeding on the ground
won a few battles but i think i lost the war

All I've ever wanted in this life so full of struggle
is a purpose and a love worth fighting for.
