Falling crashing to the ground Weeping is the only sound Collateral damage all around And the beast rolls on Nothing stopping as he moves Watching as he's sawn in two But nothing like what's done to you And the beast rolls on watch him, see him devour like the falling World Trade tower the beast rolls on snarling across the hot sands searing memories on his hands contemplating new demands and the beast rolls on pulling down everything else gasping from tightened belts spilling from the black hole wells and the beast rolls on watch him, see him devour like the falling World Trade tower the beast rolls on This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0 United States License

On the road of disappointment On the way to a town without hope retelling all the happenings of these final days Can't believe what's been happening Can't understand what went wrong Gone over it so many times Nothing more to say here on the road to Emmaus the road out of what might have been we'll find our answers if we stop looking within listen to the words of the sages and see with opened eyes here on the road to Emmaus on the way to surprise sometimes we're all clueless sometimes we just don't comprehend what the real plan has been when it happens try to figure out the karma, find the wheel that comes back around expect the stars to tell us what we should know here on the road to Emmaus the road out of what might have been we'll find our answers if we stop looking within listen to the words of the sages and see with opened eyes here on the road to Emmaus on the way to surprise then it all becomes so clear with the breaking of the bread the fellowship aro...
