The sum of all my fears like dread Are from demons yet to come All the things I should have mentioned Wave goodbye and we'll see you soon It's the words I've never written That say more about myself Where empty is the promise Lies a pocket full of doubt
Chorus So may the road I've yet to take Leave a smile across my face 'Til the laughter sheds the darkness far behind For I still belong in the cradle of humankind
Though my time may be less traveled Then those that came before We're all exiled here in madness Kicking down each other's door Unforgiven is the lesson We pour upon ourselves When a helping hand is needed A slap in the face is what you get
Chorus But I will fight for this right And each moment of its life 'Til I witness all the differences yet to heal So may the road I've yet to take Leave a smile across my face 'Til the laughter sheds the darkness far behind For I still belong in the cradle of humankind
Sometimes drink 'til I am empty Grab another from the shelf Though I'm stuck in conversation It's with myself and no one else Never listened to much reason 'Til I hear it's last call When I notice that my ghost Is still dancing on his own
Chorus
Wherever you go The sun sets to rise On a day that you find You struggle to be But you're already there Wherever you go
Wherever you go A passionles life Has no words to write It's a body that's broken And breathless of life Wherever you go
There'll always be a roof and a dream above our heads As long as I'm breathing then forever our day
Chorus But I will fight for this right And each moment of its life 'Til I witness all the differences yet to heal So may the road I've yet to take Leave a smile across my face 'Til the laughter sheds the darkness far behind We still belong in the cradle of humankind
