Lyrics
The Way I Wanna Go
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.
I know of a heaven
And damn sure
I know of a hell
If you could take a look into this fighter's mind
The things you'd see
What would you think?
How would you feel?
If you could really know me, mmm
Can you see this hell I feel inside?
A tragedy in a human mind
That's what I am
So turn away, turn away and go
Turn away while you still can
Turn away
The way I'm gonna go is not the way you want to go!
This reign that I have built myself
Over the years, will crumble down me
Life's double edged sword gives both pleasure and pain
And it's my cross to be carried
Can you see this chaos-ridden mind?
This tragedy, this tragedy of a human mind
That's how I am
It might seem to you that we're the same
But that's just a part of the illusion of life
There's no perfection in this world
And in the end we're but two strangers
Sailing our personal seas of sorrow
I've been to heaven! (and let me tell you)
I have been down there, so turn away, go
Turn away while you still can
Turn away
The way I'm gonna go is not the way you want to go!
Turn away, turn away
This is the way I wanna go
