gonna' take that road
under jet black skies
you can't hold me back
or pick the wool from my eyes

got a head full of nothin'
got a heart full of pain
I'm hellbent not heaven bound
ain't no way to win this game

You'll find me on the street
holding up that sign
I cannot doubt the word
I strive to make it mine

I'm sure it's worth something
don't ask me to explain
I'll just cling to it harder
don't you know it keeps me sane

the further and further it steps out of reach
the harder I find the time
I'm growing weary and I'm getting tired
would someone please show me the sign
for the road I'm on

I can't see the edge
it don't worry me
got my head in the cloud
got my eye on TV

They've spoken of a number
I know it can't be me
gonna win that holy ticket
and it's sure to set me free

the further and further it steps out of reach
the harder I find the time
I'm growing weary and I'm getting tired
would someone please show me the sign
for the road I'm on
