Down a Burning Road

Broke and dazed down a burning road
Stopped to have a smoke while the world was ending
Through a blizzard of ash and snow
Praying with a friend but there's no pretending
Twisting time and fate had found us
All alone
All alone

Carry us back to a better way
Carry us back with the setting sun
Carry us back on a wave of love and grace
Carry us back as the day is done
The day is done

Demons danced down a burning road
Someone made a deal with the devil's daughter
Turned a bright diamond back to coal
Gold to lead, fine wine to water
Street life left her dark and cold
Down to the bone
To the bone

Cross the freezing river run
Neath the bridge they’re watching
Quiet they can hear us talk
Charming wolves with starving hearts
Stand your ground they’re growing near
This will not end well I fear
Dim the lights
Start the show
This is all we know
