RIDING THE LANDSLIDE

New songs seem to be few and far between these days for me, But the desire is still there to create. This is a song written in sadness describing seeing someone you care about throwing it all away for a temporary high or thrill. I'm still making tweaks on this! Thanks for giving another one of our tunes a listen!

Riding The Landslide

We're gonna reap what we sow
Just like the old saying goes
You go up high on the mountain
But Eden's never found
You've looked for strength in the bottle
Then magic pills turn to smoke in your hand
When it's all gone you're still empty
Then you start all over again

You're riding the landslide all the way down
One day you'll find that you can't turn around
Just look ahead see the end of the road
Don't go

You say it's just a harmless flirtation
That's gotten way out of hand
You know it's wrong but won't end it
You've thrown away what trust demands
A vow, a broken promise
Faded dreams lead to a broken home
Wasted time now has become the thief
Of your puzzle that's not complete

You're riding the landslide all the way down
One day you'll find that you can't turn around
Just look ahead, see the end of the road
Don't go

Don't look back to read the story of your past
Turn the page to a new and brighter day
The landslide will take you where you don't want to go
Turn around now and come on back home

You're riding the landslide all the way down
One day you'll find that you can't turn around
Just look ahead see the end of the road
Don't go
You're life's been a landslide that's taking you down
One day you'll find that you can't turn around
Just look ahead see the end of the road
Don't go
