There's a winding road that leads to nowhere
And I've been down each empty lane
Up against the wall, it's the same old story
I've been around the world but I searched in vain
Now I see that I've been such a fool
I was living in the darkest night
At my feet there laid a precious jewel
I burned my bridges and it felt so right, there's

(Chorus)
Just one way, just one way, just one way
From the dark to the light there's
Just one way, just one way, just one way
From the dark to the light there's
One way home

I stood at the feet of a hundred wise men
I tried to live my life according to their way
But I was still in chains, and my eyes were blinded
And it felt so good, but I was lead astray
All my life I looked for something real
Place to place I wandered restlessly
I just needed something I could feel
And when I found the truth it set me free

(Chorus)

Life's a riddle we can never solve
So we invent an answer to the mystery
There's a sacrifice that will resolve
The gate will open by no other key

(Chorus)

Well he's the prince of the world
His work is never complete
(And) Though he promises all
You'll lie a slave at his feet
Don't you know the world is his dominion
Can't you see that you're bound to his chains
The time is short so take your strength in what remains

He will fill up your ears
And he'll dazzle your eyes
But don't believe what he's saying
'Cause he's the father of lies
In your heart, don't you know that he'll betray you
And in the end he will drag you away
Till all the world is crying for the judgement day

And he's fallen, how he's fallen
From the height of the morning star
Though his light's still shining brightly
It's the mask of the great deceiver

Though the truth has walked among us
And the words that He spoke will remain
There's a heartbreakin' blindness upon us
All our efforts to be free are in vain 
Without the gift of love
We're lost without the gift of love (We're lost without love)

Well, he never will rest
Until his evil is done
And he don't want you to know
Your freedom's already won
Don't you know the world is his dominion 
Can't you see he keeps it in chains
The time is short, so take your strength in what remains

And he's fallen, how he's fallen
From the height of the morning star
Though his light's still shining brightly
It's the mask of the great deceiver

MASK OF THE GREAT DECEIVER

Are you climbing the walls but the walls are too high
Do you fall to the ground when you reach for the sky
Does the picture you have in your mind never turn out right
Do the things that you do leave a hole in your soul
Is the best you can do always short of the goal
And the way it's supposed to be just never is

(Chorus)
How can you live when nothing's there
Something is gone inside you now
Look to the Word that says it all
Everything will turn out fine

Does the fly in the ointment get under your skin
Have you had quite enough of the state that you're in
Are you living in style but you find that it leave you cold
And the years of your life are just drifting away
There is nothing to feel, you have nothing to say
But the emptiness on your heart is getting old

(Chorus)

Does your social position reflect who you are
Does the face in the mirror look back from afar
And the look in your eyes is of someone you don't know
So you're trying to cope with the world on your own
And you're still unaware that the way has been shown
And the doorway of hope is standing open wide

(Chorus)

Well I've been down on the row and I'm livin' so low
(That) I'd sell you my britches fo' a nickel
I done spent all my bread just to screw up my head
An' that ol' reaper is comin' with his sickle

I'd get down in the mud (just) for one little shot
Trade you for a bottle everything I got
It's the devil's own so brother take heed
Don't go plantin' that ol' Whiskey Seed

I don't know where I been ain't no where or no when
And my liver's so bad I'm turnin' yellow
Occupation's a bum an' (a) zero's my sum
Got the D.T.'s so bad I look like Jell-O

Well the gutter's my bed, the paper's my sheet
You can find me lyin' out in the street
It's the devil's own so brother take heed
Don't go plantin' that ol' Whiskey Seed

(Well) Now I'm feelin' so low I got nowhere to go
If I found a big hole I think I'd crawl in
And I wisht' I could hide 'cause it feels like I died
And I hear that ol' bottle still a-callin'

But I'm tryin' to find a way to get out
Sometimes makes me want to jump and shout
It's the devil's own so brother take heed
Don't go plantin' that ol' Whiskey Seed

The rising of the sun is seen by everyone
And no one can deny that it's real
And when you hear the call come crashing through the wall
You just can't doubt the things that you feel
So lift me up the time has come to sing
And give up everything
To live for the King

Though we fight against the rule the genius and the fool
Are born to labor under the law
Before each man's a choice
Reject it or rejoice the vision that the prophets saw
(So lift me up the time has come we'll sing
And give up everything
To live for the King)

Well I don't want your high position
And I don't need your riches and fame
I got no use for your way of thinkin'
'Cause it only leads to trouble and shame

The way you talk just leaves me empty
The things you say, they leave me cold
It ain't my place to sit in judgement
But I hate to see you growing so old

Down to the core, where we're all the same
Down to the core, we need something to believe in
Down to the core, It's a cryin' shame
You'll never make it alone

There's no relief in your possessions
There's no relief in what you own
And what you reap in the coming future
Don't you know it's only what you have sown

Down to the core, it's an empty hole
Down to the core, and there's nothin' at the bottom
Down to the core, you're an empty soul
You'll never make it alone

There's no belief in all your wisdom
There's no insurance in what you know
'Cause what you know is gonna leave you nowhere
When you're standin' at the end of the road

Down to the core, you need somthin' real
Down to the core, and there's only one solution
Down to the core, don't you really feel
You'll never make it alone

DOWN TO THE CORE

Days are short and time so dear
So very much remains to be done
It's time to speak of one so near
'Til all hearts have been won

(Chorus)
The day is coming when men will look to the skies
The consummation of all who realize
We are waiting for ground zero

The wall is high beyond is much to find
A barrier we built so long ago
With fearful hope and a faith that is not blind
From clouds of joy we'll see the depths below

(Chorus)

Across the sea and far away
The eyes of all the world await the Passion Play
The final act at last begun
The new is born the old is bound to pass away
No more the turn of the pages
And now the hope of the ages
For all the bondage is broken, all who see

The oracles, the prophets of the past
The miracle of knowledge was revealed
The plan was laid upon a strong foundation
So long ago the future was sealed

(Chorus)
