WheAmre do failed imposters go?
Burn the book that says you took the
HiEmgh road, high road
AutAmumn, the fog rolls low
Over rooftops far below the
HiEmgh road, high road
SpriAmngtime, the vespers chime
Blossoms fill the trees that line the
HiEmgh road, high road
WhCere did all your worries go?
NAmow I guess we'll never know
How you hit theEm  
Well, how you hit the

Well it's tCrue, I push too hEmard I guess
To uBmse whatever fAmuel is left
At its bCest it's all the aGrt F#of dAmoubtEm

Well, I rAmeally don't know how we call this peace
'Cause it's a goddamn shame about the wall to wall warsEm  
Pleading seClf-defence but the story's old
Murder's woAmrth it, we're told
There's a promise on the way, yeaEmh
I don't believe what they say
