The Shining Path

Thieves always feel ashamed

when there's nothing left worth stealing

you don't have to turn away

I know exactly what you're feeling

I can hear the screaming

The whispering and scheming

There's no turning back

I ain't going back

The bar's on fire

But my drink's still on the table

I remember when I thought you had something to say

I remember Remember

Some are desperate

Some are full of hope (remember)

Some are vicious

Some had lost their homes (remember)

All of them believed in you

But you were nothing but a peddler

I still hear the screaming

The whispering and scheming

There's no turning back

From this shining path

The field's on fire

And the city's infiltrated

I remember

Marching to build a brighter day

Can't you hear the screaming

Can't you hear them screaming

They ain't coming back

You can't win them back

After all your lies

They don't owe you nothing

Watching the ships burn on the bay

Feeling my life drift away
