The Years Of Decay

Out on this road takes its toll

And you pay for everything you do

Under lights, made me blind

This place is the same as last night

Out of control takes its toll

But you learn to live with your dreams

Speaking your mind to those you find

Listening to what you have to say

I wouldn't change the way

I wouldn't stop the decay



Promised the world, as your world

Changed before your eyes

And the days became the weeks

And the weeks the years

And no one remembers that very first day

Or how it slipped away

Forever I wait, pulling in, pulling out

As the motors whine

To remind me I'm home

And I'm here to stay

As we decay

Another day

Decay away



I'm goin' home, I don't know where

I'm goin' home, not far from here



Out on this road, payin’ this toll

Make me whole, set the stage

Fill it with anger, fill it with rage

No, I don't know what's today

I know it falls in the years of decay

Self-sacrifice, every night

And together we paid a price in blood

That spilled out through the years

And another day passes away

Look to the black, drawn farther back

Look to each day, see the decay

Times I've had, good and bad

Win or lose, this is what I choose
