lyrics

ONCE YOU ENGAGE


TAKE THAT ROAD ALL THE WAY
CLEAR ACROSS THE LINE
IT’S UNSURE TO THIS DAY
WHAT’S ON THE OTHER SIDE
FROM THOSE WHO’VE MADE IT BACK
THE ONES WHO TALK MOSTLY LIE
WHAT THEIR EXPERIENCE HAS LEFT BEHIND
DOESN’T SEEM TO ADD UP

NICE OF YOU TO VOLUNTEER
BUT FIRST CHECK YOUR FACTS
YOU STEP IN AT YOUR OWN RISK
SO SIGN ABOVE THE LINE
WHAT YOU TAKE WITH YOU THERE
MAY END UP SLOWING YOU DOWN
TRAVEL LIGHT AND KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR FARES
IF YOU’RE TO COME AROUND

ONCE YOU ENGAGE
THERE IS NO REVERSE AND NO BRAKES
THE FASTER YOU GET
THE SOONER THE ODDS SHALL BE MET

A QUICK WORD OF ADVICE
FOR ALL IT’S WORTH
SHOULD YOU EVER COME BACK
WASTE NO TIME ON A SEARCH
FOR A LINK TO THE PAST
FOR SURE THE CHAIN WILL BE GONE
NOTHING BUT AN IMPRINT LEFT TO THE TRAINED EYE
YOU’LL FIND YOURSELF ALONE

ONCE YOU ENGAGE
THERE IS NO REVERSE AND NO BRAKES
THE FASTER YOU GET
THE SOONER THE ODDS SHALL BE MET
