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.
We train all our lives
I stay in practice,
And keep my focus
But oh, I know…
That the way I roll
The way I show myself on the outside
It may seem cold,
But I have only the best of intentions
As I make them known,
You try and show yourself to a trained eye
As in control,
And always strong and self-independent
But you cannot do this on your own
(You've tried before and you're still alone)
And I don't have the strength that I had before
(Cause I've walked this road and I know where it goes)
You're too afraid to say it
And to ashamed to admit that
She's leading you on your way back home,
And taking you nowhere
You're here for my advice
But when I give it,
You refuse to take it
And oh, I know…
I may be wrong
But at least I showed myself on the outside
As being strong
By holding on to my convictions
And so I pace myself
And keep in mind that I have no way out if I
Leave you stranded on your own
You cannot do this on your own
(You've tried before and you're still alone)
And I don't have the strength that I had before
(Cause I've walked this road and I know where it goes)
You're too afraid to say it
And to ashamed to admit that
She's leading you on your way back home
And taking you nowhere
So I...
Left you passed out on the floor
And I…
Know it's not my fault, but I
Know you won't be alone for long
So I...
Wait, wait just a minute
Then make, make my commitment
For better or worse, I'm here for good
You cannot do this on your own
(You've tried before and you're still alone)
And I don't have the strength that I had before
(Cause I've walked this road and I know where it goes)
You're too afraid to say it
And to ashamed to admit that
She's leading you on your way back home,
(Cause I've walked this road and I know where it goes)
Down the path that we both know
Is taking you nowhere
