Frank Turner - The Road Lyrics
To the east, to the eastThe road beneath my feetTo the west, to the westI haven't got there yetAnd to the north, to the northNever to be caughtTo the south, to the southMy time is running outEver since my childhood I've been scared, I've been afraidOf being trapped by circumstance, and staying in one placeSo I always keep a small bag full of clothes carefully storedSomewhere secret somewhere safeAnd somewhere close to the doorWell I've traveled many countries I've washed my feet in many seasI've drunk with drifters in Vienna and with punks in old dcAnd I've driven across deserts, driven by the ironyThat only being shackled to the the road could ever I be freeTo the east, to the eastThe road beneath my feetTo the west, to the westI haven't got there yetAnd to the north, to the northNever to be caughtTo the south, to the southMy time is running outI've felt old before my time but now I keep the age awayBy burning up the miles and yeah by filling up my daysAnd the nights a thousand nights I've playedAnd a thousand more to goBefore I take a breath and steal myselfFor the next one thousand showsTo the east, to the eastThe road beneath my feetTo the west, to the westI haven't got there yetAnd to the north, to the northNever to be caughtTo the south, to the southMy time is running outYes so saddle up your horses now, and keep your powder dryCause the truth is you won't be here longYeah, soon your going to dieTo the heart, to the heart there's no time for you to wasteYou won't find your precious answers now by staying in one placeYeah by giving up the chaseTo the east, to the eastThe road beneath my feetTo the west, to the westI haven't got there yetAnd to the north, to the northNever to be caughtTo the south, to the southMy time is running outTo the south, to the southMy time is running outTo the south, to the southMy time is running outI face the horizon everywhere I goI face the horizon, the horizon is my homeI face the horizon everywhere I goI face the horizon, the horizon is my home
