This old road I’m traveling on
Is down to one lane and that lane is slow
The only ones to ever pass
Head straight for the exit, bout out of gas

With so much white hair, blowing in the wind
Little notion I care less about traffic jams
With nowhere to be and nowhere to go
I’ll stay on this road and go it alone

The seat beside me that once held my love
Now holds the mystery of what’s yet to come So much has changed in the blink of an eye
As wiper blades wipe the tears that I cry

Missing my friends I once traveled with
When this road was young and easier to get
To your destination just cruising along
How did I get this new bruise on my arm

I chalk it up to the bumps in the road
Like the ones in my life I can not control
Along this lonely road I’m traveling on
That is down to one lane and that lane is slow

Nothing much good
Happens in the dark
No matter where
You find that you are

Feel the evil squirm
As it's on the rise
Covering up those who succumb
With this mass of cloudy lies

Bless my soul ya'll
I'm afraid
We are living
In Darkened Days

People walk around
With blinders on
So they can't see
All that's going wrong

Clocks on the wall
Say the time is nigh
Too dark for most to see
The good in us wave bye, bye

With the devil on the loose
In his fits of rage
We're here living
In Darkened Days

We've played along
As they've played our hand
As good as gone
Strike up the band

Who can we find these days
To apologize
With this long list
Of I, Me, Mine

There soon enough
Want be a soul around to save
With us living
In these Darkened Days

The Masters of War
Are at it again
While the warmongers take
The young continue to give
We cry out for peace
And an end to this game
You give us that and take from these
It's all more of the same
Why do we continually hang
To the lies that you preach
Have we not learned
Hell is within your reach
The money you make
In the making of bombs
You feel that you have
Already won
But still, you press on
As the death tolls rise
It doesn't much matter
On which side they die
As long as there's profit
That can be made
Doing your will in those we ****
Being just another day
For the Masters of War
Who are at it again
But God's keeping score
And you lose in the end

I just had this thought
Don't let some Christians
turn you away from God
They tend to do it
more than they like
After all we're all sinners
in Gods Holy sight

The only difference is
Being His children
we're forgiven
Trying our best
to do our best
But going back to the sinners
we're all still a mess

We struggle just like you
Except that we're blessed
being bathed in the truth
I often find
try as I might
I need to let God
have more control of my life

Which brings me back
to the thought
Don't let some Christians
turn you away from God

Are you living in the darkness
Of your unbelief
Turned off the light to your mind
So, your heart can't see

Relying on what you've been told
By Satan, the great thief
A slave to sin both bought and sold
Blind in your belief

Have you blown out the fire
With your unbelief
A loose gun for hire
Of evil forces that work to keep

You away from the truth
Different as day and night
Certainly not wanting you
To have the joy, only found in Jesus Christ

Are you drowning in the darkness
Of your unbelief
With no idea of how to harness
The peace of freedom that you seek

In these perilous times
Of blind leading the blind
If you reach in unbelief
Darkness will be all you find
