Johnny Cash - Invertebraes lyrics

[Johnny Cash - Invertebraes lyrics]

Some men spend a lifetime in
The hope they can devise
A chart which will an able
Man then someday analyze
The wretched men who stumble
Then somehow cannot arise
They'll pay one man to draw
The charts another to declare
What secret signs are in the lines
But do they really care
That one is long and one is short
And one line is not there
For charts or abstract documents that
Cannot have a soul
They cannot tell why this man fell
And that one reached his goal
Nor can they tell why some rebel
And lose all self control
I think a thousand years from now
As it was long ago
Two roads will be for all to see
But which way will man go
Will he arise toward the skies to
Reach for some new plateau
Will he devise a brave new world
A world thus far unknown
Will he plow under all the seeds
Of greed and hate he sewn
Or will he steal the very field
He plants his hopes upon
As long as there are two such
Roads a man can look upon
As long as some men linger
Deep within the twilight zone
The weak will always take the road
That leads to wall of stone
There should be made a stone blockade
Torn from the prison stone
And make a wall across all roads
Man should not walk upon
And let the seeds of bitter weeds
Grow till that road is gone
Then those who sot in higher power
Those who hold the might
Could then direct the hordes of men
On to the way that's right
And then the men who draw the
Charts would also see the light
