Steer Your Way letra

Steer your way past the ruins of the altar and the mall
Steer your way through the fables of creation and the fall
Steer your way past the palaces that rise above the rot

Year by year
Month by month
Day by day
Thought by thought

Steer your heart past the truth that you believed in yesterday
Such as fundamental goodness and the wisdom of the way
Steer your heart, precious heart, past the women whom you bought

Year by year
Month by month
Day by day
Thought by thought

Steer your way through the pain that is far more real than you
That smashed the cosmic model, that blinded every view
And please don't make me go there, though there be a god or not

Year by year
Month by month
And day by day
Thought by thought

They whisper still, the ancient stones, the blunted mountains weep
As he died to make men holy, let us die to make things cheap
And say the mea culpa, which you probably forgot

Year by year
Month by month
Day by day
Thought by thought

Steer your way, o my heart, though I have no right to ask
To the one who was never, never equal to the task
Who knows he's been convicted, who knows he will be shot

Year by year
Month by month
Day by day
Thought by thought

They whisper still, the ancient stones, the blunted mountains weep
As he died to make men holy, let us die to make things cheap
And say the mea culpa, which you gradually forgot

Year by year
Month by month
Day by day
Thought by thought
Month by month

Day by day
Thought by thought
Month by month
Day by day
Thought by thought

Ah, ooh
Ooh
