lyrics

He said “come on, it’s just the turn”
And it shot right through my bones and I was sold
It’s become clear
I’m alone
And I’ll try and say it’s just today
Knowing full well I’ve paved the way
For the empty space that I’ve defined
And now I’m trapped in limbo
How can I let go

Of my notes
When they’re the one thing
Solid as stone
So I’ve drawn the line
And no tarradiddle will come and define

How I live, how I choose, how I dream
In a world that tries to define your dogma as my way of life

Don’t want your speech
Don’t press your faith
An open mind
Has dug my grave
I can’t escape
It’s too ingrained
My only fear is
I’m the same

But I want to dream
As he dreamed
I want to love as he loved
But I’m still afraid
I’ll never be
With the warmth
Of another’s beat

So you can go on, and change the world
I just want, another soul
But who knows what kind of enemies I’ve made

You try to change
All your souls
But maybe
I’ll never see
Or never care
How your god
Controls the world

So I’ll wait
For a place
Or a time
When I can be
Let out a scream
Doesn’t matter much to me
As long as this world’s got something in store

For my life
That’s my own
My voice
My role
A conscious thought
Not to share alone
