He Cradle Of Humankind

Tuning: Intro The sum of all my fears like dread are from demons yet to come All the things I should've mentioned wave goodbye and "we'll see you soon" It's the words I've never written that say more about myself Where empty is the promise lies a pocket full of doubt So may the road I've yet to take Leave a smile across my face 'Till the laughter sheds the darkness far behind For I still belong in the cradle of humankind Though my time may be less traveled than those that came before We're all exiles here in madness kicking down each other's door Unforgiven is the lesson we pour upon ourselves When a helping hand is needed, slap in the face is what we get But I will fight for this right and each moment of it's life 'Till I witness all the differences yet to heal So may the road I've yet to take Leave a smile across my face 'Till the laughter sheds the darkness far behind For I still belong in the cradle of humankind Sometimes drink till I am empty, grab another from the shelf Though I'm stuck in conversation, it's with myself and no one else Never listen to much reason till I hear it's a last call When I notice that my ghost is still dancing on his own So may the road I've yet to take Leave a smile across my face 'Till the laughter sheds the darkness far behind For I still belong in the cradle of humankind Wherever you go (The sun sets to rise On a day that you find You Struggle to be But you're already there) Wherever you go Werever you go (A passionless life Has no words to write It's a body that's broken And breathless of life) Oh, wherever you go There'll always be a roof and a dream above our head As long as I'm breathing, then forever I'll be Ah, I will fight for this right and each moment of it's life 'Till I witness all the differences yet to heal So may the road we've yet to take Leave a smile across our face 'Till the laughter sheds the darkness far behind We still belong in the cradle of humankind
