The Golden Path

As I walked along the supposed golden path

I was confronted by a mysterious spectre.

They pointed to the graveyard over on yonder hill

and I paused in cosmic reflection

confused and wondering of how I came to die.

Hm, I was confused for if I was dead

how and why did I die?

But I composed myself

and decided I should face it.

But I stood paralysed on the supposed golden path.

And I was confronted by a powerful demon force.

He said he was the devil

- and when he spoke his words flowed like glowin' lava

from the mouth of a volcano.

I said:

"Help me Lord! I found myself in some kind of hell!"

But I did not believe in a heaven and hell

world in opposites kind of reality

and I gained control of myself.

And I decided to press on.

So as I walked along the supposed golden path

I was trembling with fear

- oh the lions and wizards yet to come.

Seeing in the distance

silver mountains risin' high into the clouds.

And a voice from above did whisper

some shining answer from the womb:

"Please forgive me - I never meant to hurt you."
