Текст песни: Down The Road of Compromise + перевод

Down the road of compromise

Words & Music by Nick Granato

Won’t you take a walk with me, down this old familiar road?

If you haven’t been there yet, it’s about time you should go,

Just don’t be distracted by what takes you by surprise

You’ve got to turn your head, and keep on walking by Down the road of compromise

You’ll hear some beg for money, and some will beg for bread

But I suggest you pick up your pace, and get away from them

After all you know everyone’s just out to take your last dime

And you’ll find, most everybody lies,

Down the road of compromise

Just step over fallen angels, who’ve been left out in the cold

Don’t worry about the sick, the opressed, the hurt, the old,

And don’t be fooled by children who stare with hungry eyes

Compassion’s not a virtue for the wise

Down the road of compromise

You’ll meet lots of friendly faces there, who’ll try to change your mind,

At times the road gets narrow, and you’ll wander with the blind

But you might not be welcomed in their Gods paradise

But don’t mind them; they’ve spent a lot of time,

Down the road of compromise

You’ll pass right by devils, thieves & diplomats,

It’s hard to tell the difference, so you’d better watch your back,

Some will offer prayers and some pretend to take your side,

But the truth will always be so hard to find

Down the road of compromise

So won’t you take a walk with me, down familiar this old road?

I can show you where to walk, and just how far to go,

There’s no need to worry, if you’ll just wear your disguise

Cause nothings worth that much sacrifice

Down the road of compromise

Yes, you could make a difference, but standing up might cost your life,

It’s easier to just keep on walking by…

Down the road of compromise

Down the road of compromise

Down the road of compromise
