The meanest dog you'll ever meet
He ain't the hound dog in the street
He bares some teeth and tears some skin
But brother, that's the worst of him
The dog you really got to dread
Is the one that howls inside your head
It's him whose howling drives men mad
And a mind to its undoing
Wait for me, I'm comin'
Wait, I'm comin' with you
Wait for me, I'm comin' too
I'm comin' too
Show the way so we can see
Show the way the world could be
If you can do it, so can she
If she can do it, so can we
Show the way
Show the way the world could be
Show the way so we believe
We will follow where you lead
We will follow if you
Show the way
Think they'll make it?
I don't know
(Show the way)
Hades, you let them go
(Show the way)
I let them try...
And how 'bout you and I?
(Show the way)
Are we gonna try again?
(Show the way)
It's time for spring
We'll try again next fall
Wait for me?
I will
Wait for me, I'm comin'
Wait, I'm comin' with you
Wait for me, I'm comin' too
I'm comin' too
Who are you?
Who do you think you are?
Who are you?
Who are you to lead her?
Who are you to lead them?
Who are you to think that you can hold
Your head up higher than your fellow man?
You got a lonesome road to walk
And it ain't along the railroad track
And it ain't along the black-top tar
You've walked a hundred times before
I'll tell you where the real road lies
Between your ears, behind your eyes
That is the path to Paradise
Likewise, the road to ruin
Wait for me, I'm comin' (I'm comin')
(I'm comin') Wait, I'm comin' with you
(I'm comin') Wait for me, I'm comin' too (Wait, I'm comin')
(Wait) Wait for me, I'm comin' (I'm comin')
(I'm comin') Wait, I'm comin' with you
(I'm comin') Wait, I'm comin'
Show the way
I'm coming wait for me (show the way)
I hear the walls repeating (show the way)
The falling of our feet and
It sounds like drumming (show the way)
And we are not alone (show, show the way)
I hear the rocks and stones (show, show the way)
Echoing our song (echoing our song)
I'm coming (coming, coming)
