Lyrics
Adventures Close To Home
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.
Passion that shouts
and red with anger
I lost myself
Through alleys of mysteries
I went up and down
like a demented train
Don't take it personal
I choose my own fate
I follow love
I follow hate.
Searching for something
that makes makes hearts move
I found myself.
But my best possession
walked into the shade
and threatened to drift away.
Don't take it personal
I choose my own fate
I follow love
I follow hate.
Full of myself
I left you behind
as if I could,
possessed by Quixote's dream
went to fight dragons
in the land of concrete.
Don't take it personal
I choose my own fate
I follow love
I follow hate.
Rolling in pain
discovered what hurts
and tasted hell
infatuated by madness
I danced in flames
and drunk in the depth of love.
