The Way
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Awake he said sleep no more
You're dreaming I'm gonna show you the door
Come on and let me show the way
They march on through the dust
Believe their leader they can trust
In all the noise they lose the way
But what can move so strong
Is it just simply to belong
Or do we love to be blind
And I fell down again
I closed my eyes I'm not sure when
And now I dream to an open end
Awake he said sleep no more
You're dreaming I'm gonna show you the door
Come on and let me show the way
Seven men pass me by
And all but one of them will die
And he's the one who knows the way
(But) what holds on so tight
Why is it so hard to fight
How do we open our eyes
And I fell down again
I closed my eyes I'm not sure when
And now I dream to an open end
Awake he said sleep no more
You're dreaming I'm gonna show you the door
Come on and let me show the way
And I fell down again
I closed my eyes I'm not sure when
And now I dream to an open end
