Lyrics
i've paid this toll for ten long years
all in the name of progress
and now i tread these crooked miles
to find a way out of here
dull life
dull boy
i missed the early mark
but I'm ready to roll
yeah I'm ready to roll
if constant promise holds all sway
blind horses lead the carriage
the toothless tooth will not guide me
i'll fight my way out of here
