the road to hell (PT. 1)

Well Im standing by the river but the water doesnt flow
It boils with every poison you can think of
And Im underneath the streetlight but the light of joy I know
Scared beyond belief way down in the shadows
And the perverted fear of violence, chokes the smile on every face
And common sense is ringing out the bell
This aint no technological breakdown
Oh no, this is the road to hell
And all the roads jam up with credit and theres nothing you can do
Its all just bits of paper, flying away from you
Oh look out world, take a good look what goes down here
You must learn this lesson fast and learn it well
This aint no upwardly mobile freeway
Oh no, this is the road
Said this is the road, this is the road to hell
