Lyrics

It's a dark road
And a dark way that leads to my house
And the word says, you're never gonna find me there, oh no
I've got a open door
It didn't get there by itself
It didn't get there by itself
There's a feeling
But you're not feeling it at all
There's a meaning
But you're not listening anymore
I look at that open road
I'm gonna walk there by myself
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
And if you catch me, I might try to run away
You know I can't be here too long
And if you let me, I might try to make you stay
Seems you'll never realize a good thing till it's gone
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Maybe I'm still searching but I don't know what it means
All the fires of destruction are still burning in my dreams
There's no water that can wash away this longing to come clean
Hey, yeah, yeah
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I can't find joy within my soul
It's just sadness taking hold
I wanna come in from the cold
And make myself renewed again
I wanna go in there
It takes strength to live this way
The same old madness every day
I wanna kick these blues away
I wanna learn to live again
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, yeah, yeah, hey
It's a dark road
And a dark way that leads to my house
And the word says, you're never gonna find me there, oh, no
I've got a open door
It didn't get there by itself, ooh
It didn't get there by itself
