lyrics

Road to Oblivion

Took the long road to nowhere like a doll on a string
To the land where the wild poppies grow
With the yoke on my shoulders, in a boat with no wheel
Swept away to a world not my own

Like a wretched band of pilgrims at a gate with no door
Heading out for a place to call home
Sowed my grain on the waters, came to harvest the sea
Like the wind through the roots of a tree

All the way down the freeway to the edge of the world
Down to the edge of the world

Took the long road to nowhere, torn apart from my soil
With my bare hands I nourished the ground
And the plods of my footsteps down the long muddy road
As I come to the end of my rope

Howling out to the desert, like a wolf in the night
With no word echoing back at the rocks
Down the road to oblivion, on a free one-way ride
To the land where the bright sunsets go

Penny Dreadful Athens, Greece

PENNY DREADFUL is an expressionistic gloom 'n' roll band formed in March 2010.
Their name derives from from a 19th century British fiction publication that featured
lurid serial stories, costing a penny each.
Their sound is electric and
wild, yet still with gloomy moments.
The lyrics talk about tattered characters or deal with the experience of self-deceit. ... more
