Road

Road,
Road under my feet,
Where do you take me to?
The road says nothing.

I'm off on the road,
The road that I'll never know.
I'm off on the road,
The road that I'll never see its end.

Time and time again,
I'm off on this road.
Time and time again,
I ask you.

Road,
Road under my feet,
Where do you take me to?
The road says nothing.

Road, no stop sign.
Road, no return.
Road, never end.
