The Longer Way lyrics

A secret shelter, a sanctuary Is the temple of life, you'll see Fading shadows, bridges burn All the wisdom lies there to learn There's a short way in the shade Showing you an open gate But if you want to find a place Away from the dark The longer way you have to walk Hear the sirens calling you Never trust them, their voice's untrue A few companions are all you've got Hard to find out who's a friend, who's not There's a passage through the moor Promising an easy war But if you want to find some peace Deep in your heart The longer way you have to walk
