Name: Roman Roads
Duration: P00H03M54S
Description: This single was released earlier this year and was compared to the song ‘Closer to the Heart’ by Rush, which we thought was a pretty cool comparison! Like all our stuff however, we think it has it’s own sound, making heavy use of falsetto and harmonies. It is about the importance of making your own path in life, not following the straight lines or (Roman) roads.

lyrics

Drawing closer to the finish line
But beaten path lessons will be lost in time
And if this happens then we may well forget
That sometimes pain can be heaven sent

Coz we’ve been looking for things that may be out of reach
Searching for the things they do not teach
No short cuts for us, we are far too proud
We are salt of the earth with our head in the clouds

You don’t want to travel those roman roads
They’re too straight and true, you gonna reap what you sow
Don’t let fear pull those dreams apart
So you gotta test your mind, your soul, your spirit and your heart

I can see where we are, where we want to go
But will it take to the land where milk and honey flow
So steer clear of those racing lines
You will win for sure, but lose in time
