Crossroads

I'm standing at the crossroads

There are many roads to take

But I stand here so silently

For fear of a mistake

One path leads to paradise

One path leads to pain

One path leads to freedom

But they all look the same

I've traveled many roads

And not all of them where good

The foolish ones taught more to me

Than the wise ones ever could

One path leads to sacrifice

One path leads to shame

One path leads to freedom

But they all look the same

There were roads I never traveled

There were turns I did not take

There were mysteries that I left unraveled

But leaving you was my only mistake

So I'm standing at the crossroads

Imprisoned by this doubt

As if by doing nothing

I might find my way out

One path leads to paradise

One path leads to pain

One path leads to freedom

But they all look the same
