Henry Rollins - Illumination lyrics



I walked green miles of jungle

I walked through yellow miles of pain

I crossed starvation's desert

Watched dead rivers swell with rain

The song of insects filled the air

Nights and cities of despair

A killer sun sets sunday wear

And all the roads from here to there

Yeah

I sailed the sea of desolation

Dropped my anchor there

Plumbed the depths of isolation

Walked its length and was not scared

Went from end to end to end

And from there I went again

The road that only this one knows

Off to nowhere

Here I go

Illumination comes so hard

Makes me see but it leaves its scars

At times I wish that I didn't know what I know now

Thought and thought until I lost my mind

Looked and looked until I went near blind

The path is fair but so unkind

Illumination

(solo)

At night the highway's diesel roar

Speaks to me and tells me more

Than any book I've ever read

Or anything you've ever said

Through silent eyes inside

I watch myself and worlds collide

The seasons burn and crack my skin

I stay outside and live within

Illumination comes so hard

Makes me see but it leaves its scars

At times I wish that I didn't know what I know now

Thought and thought until I lost my mind

Looked and looked until I went near blind

The path is fair but so unkind

Illumination

Illumination

Illumination

Illumination

Illumination
