Band Rollins - Illumination lyrics
rate meI walked green miles of jungle / I walked through yellow miles of pain
I crossed starvation\'s desert / Watched dead rivers swell with rain
The song of insects filled the air / Nights in cites of despair
Where killer\'s sons said, son beware / And all the roads from here to there
I sailed the sea of desolation / Dropped my anchor there
Plumbed the depths of isolation / Walked its length and was not scared
Went from end to end to end / And then from there I went again
The road that only this one knows / Off to nowhere here I go
Illumination comes so hard / Makes me see but leaves its scars
At times I wish that I didn\'t know what I know now
Thought and thought until I lost my mind
Looked and looked until I went near blind
The path is fair but so unkind
At night the highway\'s diesel roar / Speaks to me and tells me more
Than any book I\'ve ever read / Or anything you ever said
With silent eyes inside / I watch myself and worlds collide
The seasons burn and crack my skin / I stay outside and live within
