sunblind and tired

reaching the end of one more white marl road
you pause to think of just why you walk here
knowing each day that they may change the mode

those were the places where no honey flowed
and every season seemed equally drear
reaching the end of one more white marl road

so much accounted for in every load
and the conclusion never yet comes near
knowing each day that they may change the mode

nobody listened when the rooster crowed
and you found out no one was left to hear
reaching the end of one more white marl road

you were the one on whom it was bestowed
and now you find the blessing was not dear
knowing each day that they may change the mode

this is the message in the secret code
orders to which no person will adhere
reaching the end of one more white marl road
knowing each day that they may change the mode
