Days of the New - Dirty Road (Lyrics)

Lyrics:

I've waited to say so long to the shame that owns you
The limits are bound, there's more to be found
Inside of you

Give it some time, the voices seem heavy, I know this
If you play by the hour
It's where you begin not where you will end

Today

And I feel like I am living
Where no one can find me
And I don't know how I've landed here

Sometimes I feel like those good things are behind me
Is the road supposed to get better than this?
And I'll find, yes I will find
Yes I will find, so long to the faith
Believe in yourself, no fantasy

Discovery blind, I hope you will find
The truth here...give it some time

Believing and knowing are two different things
Play by the silence
It's where you will end, not where you begin

Get up and open your eyes
Don't let yourself ever fall down
Get through it and learn how to fly
I know you will find a way

Today

It's the same damn dirty road
I will find a way

[ChadMHankins]

Most underrated musician and albums of all time

[pazzini]

Ouvir um som desse em pleno 2024 com todo lixo sonoro que somos bombardeados todos os dias, é uma terapia.

[jauthement]

I really wish Travis would make music again.

[hippiedaveshappyplace]

I had a brain aneurysm in 2012 and im still learning how to walk again. This song gives me motivation! Is your road supposed to get better than this?

[bryanbarthlow]

I hope Travis makes it through this difficult time in his life. He has given me so much joy.

[twistedsevenfold]

This song still means so much to me and this is one of the most underrated Bands of the 90s for sure.

[SurfingBullDog]

I love the repeating outro...”It’s the same damn dirty road...” It just conveys so much anger, frustration, and hopelessness. Very powerful.

[juliejohnson]

Always memorized by DOTN
The way Travis sing's and plays the accoust guitar is an extension of his body, n soul and Beautifully equally
equlectic mind. I thank my lucky stars, we still have his music (DOTN)
just my opinion, So, So Gifted, also So So sad, could still be that"once in a lifetime" band.Transending all

[aaronkostenick]

Best recovery song ever sang in HISTORY! Thank you for this Travis, I wish you the best as you've given me!

[TheRealJoeBeeber]

The greatest compser of the last 50 years

[vonyenz]

this is one of the best and very powerful literary verses from Travis Meeks that's worth loving...

[HarrellB_US]

2023 and I’ve listened to this group since the 90’e and still in my top 5 favorite bands ever! So original!

[markr.]

In my top 10 favorite songs of all time.

[katcorbett]

This song entered my life 2days ago and it just keeps me feeling good I'm completely relating to it cause I'm living these lyrics

[peasweet]

I’ve loved this song since Travis lived it... and the first line of the second verse just hit my incarcerated heart. You’re not alone Travis but I know freedom lies in a faith greater than Self.... Brother I pray we both find that freedom this side of heaven...

[canterburytells]

Was supposed to see him years ago and he cancelled the tour cause he relapsed. Hope hes doing well. Im an addict musician myself. The road is rough.

[beerman]

He should have been as recognized or famous as cornell or weiland. Or maybe it's a good thing hes not idk we got the albumns tho

[FatalChaz]

How did this great sing fly under the radar?

[CAREFREEI]

yes me to he is such a prodagy love that voice

[jjbb]

Love this song. Sounds better just with an acoustic and voice tho.
