Empire of Gold - The Ride Home Lyrics

Looking so anxiously down this dirt road has made me reconsider the possible lies
That I've been denying and you've been conspiring these actions
That made me drive straight into this starry night
Mountains on mountains on top of more mountains
Have systematically shown me the way home
But all of your demons are sharing my seasons
And keeping me company on this gorgeous ride home
Home
So don't expect mercy you love controversy I've mastered your book I'm a worm
I'm a scholar
And all of the words that your keeping imprisoned are sculpting you into a pagan
A heathen of love
The seasons are changing and with them
I'm dying 'cause slowly but surely the truth is revealed
And inside my heart the feeling are charred
And making me reconsider which way I shouldn't drive
I once was so happy with memories about you they flooded my mind
You were all I could see
You've mastered the craft of disguising the truth all your beautiful lies are
What's keeping me buried alive
I was caught in your web all your words were the thread
And the venom inside you is what kept me afraid
Escaping your grasp and flying so fast the reasons are clear
Why your memories turned into fear
Looking so anxiously down this dirt road has made me reconsider which way is home
My feelings conflict with opposing directions my past is so dark
And my future is holding no signs
Mountains on mountains on top of more mountains are keeping me shelter
And keeping me free
And all of the demons that killed all my seasons are slowly retreating
As angels are guiding me home
Home
