Wounds

I’ll take the first road out

In my mind there is no doubt

This is not where I belong

My home has never been here

Where all I can feel is fear

Any minute I’ll be gone

I’ve got to find my way; there is no need to say

This road just turned out wrong

I’d drain my life away, if I should choose to stay

I’ve waited far too long

This path leads nowhere - and I‘m quickly getting there

In the wounds I call my life, every day you twist the knife

Now I’m leaving it behind - this is not the life for me

All this time I’ve had the need to re-invent my sanity

Make my own way through this world so I can call myself free

Driven for a change

From a life I can’t arrange

I’ll go and face my fears

Freeing up my mind

Burning up the bridge behind

I won’t shed any tears

I’ve got to find my way; there is no need to say

This road just turned out wrong

I’d drain my life away, if I should choose to stay

I’ve waited far too long

This path leads nowhere - and I‘m quickly getting there

As I walk out that gate

I can see your fear and hate

Just try and stop me if you dare

Nothing you can say

Will move me anyway

‘Cos I simply do not care

I’m leaving out today; there is no need to say

This road just turned out wrong

I’d drain my life away, if I should choose to stay

I’ve waited far too long

This path leads nowhere - and I‘m quickly getting there
