Where does the road meet the pavement?
Travel down the road of your life
Is that your pavement, no longer there?
Chipped up and gone, up to the air
Where?s your road? The road that you walk on
That leads your life and soul
Where?s your road?
It?s so dark and cold around where you hide
Where you go down, meets the road
And there?s the time and the clock is never ending
I see the darkened night and it is on the road
Turning hands of time
Can you be so brave?
And you bellow in molten mellowed ways
So, where is your road?
Where does it take you?
Find yourself empty walking down it once again
Where?s your road?
Where does it leave you?
Cobblestone, they say it?s gone
Where?s your road?
Is it pavement now?
Have too many cars driven down?
Where?s your road?
Life is not changed
It separates your mind
And your mind
