about
Phil Diamond's first official release comes almost ten years after recording his unreleased album "Full of Lights". "Road to the Blues" is an anthem to the eternal artist's struggle and the willingness to overcome the esoteric obstacles and aquire redemption.
lyrics
You tell me to cry about it,
Lord ain't a shame?
Sometimes you hear a laughter, others you hear the rain
You're telling the world about it, in so many different ways
You're burning the clues behind you, you're trying not to fade away
Your way
Sometimes you hear a sound just, outside your door
the hand that crawls behind you, the reason to leave your whole
those troubles inside your mind, will drive you insane
everytime you're wandering, in the pouring rain
You're telling the world about it
You're living the life inside you baby,
oh in the past
A countdown to all of your sorrows,
your struggle to be your best
You're telling the world about it,
but this is the road to the blues
nothing to hide behind this
but can you really loose?
Your weapon of choice,
your piece to destroy
your cry out for days
lord, where is the love?
