Totally subjective The thing that you see So what's your objective? What will it be? With those nails and those wrenches The tools in your hand I just have one question If hammers can build, if hammers can take If hammers can make things, if hammers can Break the ground that you walk upon Break the ground that you're standin' on, standin' on If hammers can crush, if hammers can mend Then how do you plan to use your hammer, my friend? Wield your hammer like weapons drawn or Wield your hammer to right what's wrong, right what's wrong? Hmm Only time will show Only time will show Only time will show, only time will show We're not passing judgment 'Cause that would be cruel Use your words to bludgeon you As if they were some tool But with those nails and those wrenches Those tools in your hand I just have one question If hammers can build, if hammers can take If hammers can make things, if hammers can Break the ground that you walk upon Break the ground that you're standin' on, standin' on If hammers can crush, if hammers can mend Then how do you plan to use your hammer, my friend?

Did you see the wood-child's gaze See the ancient fire in his eyes? Did you hear the Ax as it sang Thirsting to drink the blood of a king? Did you see it flash to and fro Glowing with a life all its own? Did you see the tyrant fall Headless in the torchlit hall? Did you see the wood-child Tear the crown From the severed head of the king? Did you see the tyrant On a stake in the village square? Could it be the end Has come at last? Could this be the prophecy Come to pass? Back in the town they Celebrate times to come Here in the wood we dance For the end has come

Can't find a place, which feels like home Can't find a room, where I'm all alone Can't find the words to write about Can't find a place, where I won't be found. I'm longing for the road I'm longing for a road sweet road I'm longing for a road My road sweet road. Can't find a sign, which warns me on time Can't find a stop, that will push the rewind Can't find the lights, that will keep me slow Can't find any help, while my engine is running low. I'm longing for the road I'm longing for a road sweet road I'm longing for a road My road sweet road.
