lyrics
There’s a light at the end of the road and it’s a catchin’ up on me
There’s a light at the end of the road and it’s all that I can see
There’s a light and I know that the right and the left are not for me
There’s a light and it’s blinding oh it’s blinding
There’s a knife it’s so pretty and bright and I hold it close to me
There’s a knife at the end of a life it’s as sweet as sweet can be
There’s a knife and I hold it so tight that I can almost feel it breathe
There’s a knife and it’s shining oh it’s shining
There’s a woman at the end of the stairs and she’s staring into me
There’s a woman at the end of the stairs with her hair down to her knees
There’s a woman and she holds in her hands all the prayers the children leave
There’s a woman and she’s smiling oh she’s smiling
There’s a light at the end of the road and it’s all that I can see
There’s a light and I know that the right and the left are not for me
There’s a light and it’s blinding oh it’s blinding
There’s a knife it’s so pretty and bright and I hold it close to me
There’s a knife at the end of a life it’s as sweet as sweet can be
There’s a knife and I hold it so tight that I can almost feel it breathe
There’s a knife and it’s shining oh it’s shining
There’s a woman at the end of the stairs and she’s staring into me
There’s a woman at the end of the stairs with her hair down to her knees
There’s a woman and she holds in her hands all the prayers the children leave
There’s a woman and she’s smiling oh she’s smiling

With Darkness In My Eyes
by The Heavy HorsesYeah I made the album art, but also it is very very well done album, production is pure opulence. Justin Mahoney is a true gent.
