lyrics

BUDDHA ON THE ROAD

Without intent
I put on you
A heavy load
Gave you the scales
On which I weighed
My thoughts and fears

You were my Buddha on the road

Your standards, views
Your hopes and fears
Became my dragons
To be slayed
After all these years
I now am freed

I killed my Buddha on the road
I killed my Buddha on the road

And yet I wish
That our bond
Had not been frayed
That you had stayed
And walked the road
just as a friend

You were my Buddha on the road
You were my Buddha on the road
I left my Buddha on the road
