Band Rollins - Illumination lyrics

rate me

I 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
