My Blakean Year Lyrics

My Blakean Year lyrics

In my Blakean year I was so disposed

Toward a mission yet unclear, advancing pole by pole

Fortune breathin' into my ear mouthed a simple ode

One road is paved in gold, one road is just a road



In my Blakean year such a woeful schism

Pain of our existence was not as I envisioned

Boots that trudged from track to track worn down to the sole

One road is paved in gold, one road is just a road



Boots that tramped from track to track, worn down to the sole

One road was paved in gold, one road was just a road

In my Blakean year, temptation yet a hiss

Just a shallow spear, robed in cowardice



Brace yourself for bitter flack for a life sublime

A labyrinth of riches never shall unwind

The threads that bind the pilgrims sack

Are stitched into the Blakean back



So throw off your stupid cloak embrace all that you fear

For joy shall conquer all despair in my Blakean year

So throw off your stupid cloak embrace all that you fear

For joy shall conquer all despair in my Blakean year



Mercy has a human heart

Pity a human face

Love a human form of defy

Peace a human dress

To mercy, pity, peace and love

For praying their distress



But mercy shall embrace

Mercy shall embrace

Mercy, it is the mercy

It is the mercy



Mercy shall embrace

Mercy shall embrace

Mercy shall embrace

It's the mercy, mercy
