The Road Below Me Lyrics

Like a roach in a sink, I was fighting the waterI fell on my back down the drainI'd drown you'd think but no sooner than laterI was back on my feet againYeah, I crawled on the streets, looking up at the buildingsAnd often I hid my faceI paced among feet, your floor was my ceilingBut now I live like I own the placeOn the road below meI smile at the joys of travellingOn the road below meI can handle almost everythingOn the road below meFirst I was sad; but now I'm freeOn the road below meThe distance from here to a memoryEvery day was a mountain, the fear of what hidInside of the timeworn phrasesI went from pale to gray, from being shut awayAnd now I can't resist new facesDays become weeks, yeah, March becomes MayLooking back at my sleepless nightsBut, hey, I'm built for trouble and I can take a lotAnd I can safely say: "I'm allright"!On the road below me ... Allright!You know wonders are wonderful-Even when they are being asked for..Yeah, we just don't knowWhat life has in store for us..Because the moral of this is immoralAnd the moral escapes me now...On the road below me ...
