My Blakean Year Songtext / Lyric

In my Blakean year

I was so disposed

Toward a mission yet unclear

Advancing pole by pole



Fortune breathed into my ear

Mouthed a simple ode

One road is paved in gold

One road is just a road



In my Blakean year

Such a woeful schism

The pain of our existence

Was not as I envisioned



Boots that trudged from track to track

Worn down to the sole

One road is paved in gold

One road is just a road






Boots that tramped from track to track

Worn down to the sole

One road was paved in gold

One road was just a road



In my Blakean year

Temptation but a hiss

Just a shallow spear

Robed in cowardice



Brace yourself for bitter flack

For a life sublime

A labyrinth of riches

Never shall unwind

The threads that bind the pilgrim's sack

Are stitched into the Blakean back



So throw off your stupid cloak

Embrace all that you fear

For joy shall conquer all despair

In my Blakean year



So throw off your stupid cloak

Embrace all that you fear

For joy shall conquer all despair

In my Blakean year
