THE LOW ROAD
by Van Walker

Heaven is nothingness
But we all been convinced otherwise
It ain't nothing but dreams for the blind
The same way a child fears the night
But memory cannot go anyplace it don't already know
But I'll keep my eyes on the road
A road that's as long as it's low

There's vanity everywhere
As we all try to climb greasy poles
I'll wait my time down below
And watch as the go-getters fall
For the faster they pick you up
Well they'll put you down just as quickly
But I've a longer strategic strategy
I'll embrace an invisible destiny

For living ain't everything
It's about time we all realised
This old world we consume like a fire
We fuel with our future kids lives
And the heart's no commodity
But an ego that's empty with greed
Values quantity over quality
When more stuff's the last thing this world needs

The low road is long
And those high roads are quick but they're wrong
For they'll chew you up and spit you out
Then when you're gone you're gone
It's the low road for me
