    “Illumination comes so hard / Makes me see but leaves its scars
    At times I wish that I didn’t know what I know now”

    I walked green miles of jungle / I walked through yellow miles of pain
    I crossed starvation’s desert / Watched dead rivers swell with rain
    The song of insects filled the air / Nights in cites of despair
    Where killer’s sons said, son beware / And all the roads from here to there
    I sailed the sea of desolation / Dropped my anchor there
    Plumbed the depths of isolation / Walked its length and was not scared
    Went from end to end to end / And then from there I went again
    The road that only this one knows / Off to nowhere here I go
    Illumination comes so hard / Makes me see but leaves its scars
    At times I wish that I didn’t know what I know now
    Thought and thought until I lost my mind
    Looked and looked until I went near blind
    The path is fair but so unkind
    At night the highway’s diesel roar / Speaks to me and tells me more
    Than any book I’ve ever read / Or anything you ever said
    With silent eyes inside / I watch myself and worlds collide
    The seasons burn and crack my skin / I stay outside and live within
