Lead the Way Songtext
von Flogging Molly

I was seven days cold sober when the elephant appeared
He came crashing through the walls that I just built
When a cast of drunken sailors run amok to make it clear
I was nowhere better off than I began
It takes more than guts to be a bigger man

Singing you myself have nothing more
You have nothing more to say
Your voice no longer resonates
Your soul forever sleeps
No reasons left to clarify
Your words forgotten speech
So, come aboard and join the other
Ghosts you′ll end up here

Down came Moses with his ten commandments proud as one could be
With some commands built of stone for all to read
But we didn't really understand the message that was fierce
So, we drank another lifetime through the tears

I saw that they thought we′d always live in fear


Singing you myself have nothing more
You have nothing more to say
Your voice no longer resonates
Your soul forever sleeps
No reasons left to clarify
Your words forgotten speech
So, come aboard and join the other
Ghosts you'll end up here

Sing it loud, sing it now
Sing out what you are you've found
There′s no writing on the wall for all to see
Don′t take a bow to the crowd
There's no reason to be proud
Don′t take away this beauty we all need

So, lead the way (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, lead the way (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, lead the way (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, lead the way (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

Ah, you myself have nothing more
You've nothing to say
Your voice no longer resonates
Your soul forever sleeps
No reasons left to terrify
Your words forgotten speech
So, come aboard and join the other
Ghosts you′ll end up here


Sing it loud, sing it now
Sing out what you are you've found
There′s no writing on the wall for all to see
Don't take a bow to the crowd
There's no reason to be proud
Don′t take away this beauty we all need

Oh, yeah, lead the way (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, lead the way (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, lead the way (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, lead the way (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Said, lead the way (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, lead the way (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, lead the way (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I said lead the way (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
