Walking through the landscape of the garden of my life
I see of ancient memories the remnants that survive
Sprawling thorns and bushes of fears and desperations
trees reaching up high with dreams and expectations
I use my hands to weed out the bad things from the good
and stare on up in wonder: will any of those trees bear fruit?
Will any hope ever come true?
Will any of those dreams ever come true?

So many roads, but nowhere to go
There are so many roads,
but I don't know where to go
So many roads, but nowhere to go
There are so many roads,
but I just don't know where to go
I just don't know where to go

Money and Religion, the rulers of our world
always striving for power, no matter who gets hurt
Playing with our emotions, driving us apart
the marching feet of suspicion trample a loving heart
Endlessly falling through golden rings of fire
heating up our faces with the glow of pure desire
I wish that I was going home
Oh, I wish that I was going home

So many roads, but nowhere to go
There are so many roads,
but I don't know where to go
So many roads, but nowhere to go
There are so many roads,
but I just don't know where to go
I just don't know where to go

From the tales you're telling and the songs you sing
I know you're searching for some sort of King
But it's your leader that I won't be
Don't put your hopes or your trust in me
I just want to help you to get along
but you yourselves will have to choose which path is wrong
Which of these roads are wrong
Which of your weapons are so wrong
