The Robert Reynolds Band - Long Road

The lights went out I started to shout but the words died in my throat
There was no point in calling out the devil owned the house
I gave the man a dirty look that's the reason they let me out
It was the last thing I remember before the lights went out

The long road ahead has turns the best is yet to come I guess
It takes a clown to catch a con they both get you going down
There ain't no use in getting mad the ones you want to hate don't care
They're never there when it gets late they ran before the anthem played

See the light how it moves
Just like the thoughts you lose
See the places that you leave
See the eyes of the ones you need

The long night past without a kiss the laughter burned in its place
You know she never left alone there was always one of them around
The darkness comes without a gun it needs no help to get it done
Peace won't help you now you better find some help somehow

They broke the one who wouldn't fight he couldn't be allowed to stop
The march of progress to the bank where everyone left their best chance
The wait was over for the rest it was the only time to rest
Before you face the final test and there's no time for happiness

I wish I could go right now but there are things I have to do
It would be great if it could be the one time I was wrong about you
Spin the wheel and place your bets lady luck is at your back
You find out that you can't go back to where it all began

Put your feet back on the ground let your hair fall all around
Sing the words of your favourite song and it will all be gone
Close the door and let it end I won't be back this way again
Tell the ones that I love that I had nothing bad to say
