lyrics

I grew up in the land of strange
Put my money in, never got back change
The road’s been long, the road’s been tough
Hard to know when it’s been long enough
And when I see another twisty bend
I wonder, Will it bring me to the end
And when I see another twisty bend

I went to school, I got good grades
Had some scrapes, had some escapades
Had good times, had some grief
Thought that the end would bring me some relief
Got a job, thought I was set
How could I know what hadn’t happened yet
Didn’t see what’s coming, but up it crept
We descend to hell in a tiny step
So when I see another twisty bend
I wonder, Will it bring me to the end
And when I see another twisty bend

I turned to drugs, then I turned to the Lord
But neither one could I afford
Driven by faith, driven by desire
Hobbled by pain, burnt by fire

If life is a test, I never passed
Ran a marathon, came in last
Had me dreams but they came to naught
Tried to buy salvation but it couldn’t be bought
And when I see another twisty bend
I wonder, Will it bring me to the end
