Electric

The old man knows
What the son must learn,
On the highway of life
Where the wheels turn.

Where lessons are taught
And dreams fulfilled,
Where hope can bloom
Or be easily killed.

Where boy becomes man
And man becomes child,
Where life can be reckless
And things can get wild.

Where joy is found
If you pay the price.
And those who gamble
Live by the dice.

Where father and son
Find the strength to unite.
As the son slips away,
The father holds tight.

Where everything lost
Is forever entwined
With hope that tomorrow
It is love we find.

Down a dangerous road...
