The road is winding, turning every which way
My journey seems as if it'll be a long one, will I stray?
Contemplation as the fog disappears, night turns to day
I'm away of the difficulties, but will, oh will I be okay?

The questions will run through my mind, maybe haunt me
The answers will show up, frustrate me, maybe set me free
There's people along the way telling me "be all you can be"
Encouraging, yet when I look in the mirror I'm not sure what I see

All I know is that when I look back I'll see the distance I've traveled
The people I've left behind, the broken promises shattered
My old ways, the outside layer worn and tattered
Now I know these material, these people don't matter

Further down the path, the raod starts to straighten out
I'm coming to terms with what this journey's all about
Motivation and certainty replace my old feelings of doubt
The temptations will still linger, only in small amounts

My mind, my thoughts, the answers are clear
My time is coming soon, the day my life will start is near
Life without my drugs will no longer leave me consumed with fear
No longer wanting to waste time, it's precious so I'll hold it dear

The road is no longer winding, I know the way
My journey is how I percieve it to be, I will not stray
Contemplation disappears with the fog, night turns to day
Still aware of the difficulties, I will, oh I will be okay

Why don't you just throw me?
Go on and break me down
Common, shake me
Spin me 'round and 'round
Constantly dizzy when you're around
And I have to find something to help get me up off the ground
I'm too amused by you
and why you do the things you do
I'd hope the things you say are true
but sadly I'm beginning to think your facts are fiction and your truths are few
I hate how you look, boast and assume
So how could I possibly be in a better mood everytime I see you?
So why don't you just throw me?
Go on and break me down
Common, shake me
Spin me 'round and 'round
but when I get dizzy from you being around
Take a break from putting me down
You should be the something that helps me get up off the ground

If you want to go, I'll come as long as you ask me to
I'd even travel into oblivion and back, as long as I'm with you
Just as long as the sky stays blue
Just as long as we both stay true
We can do whatever we want to do
So let's keep it easy, our troubles few
Just take my hand and follow me
and together it's the world we'll see
We'll discover the truths that will set us free
Let's do this...just you and me

You're a great big nothing, merely trapped between four off-white colored walls
Surrounded by people apparently trying to find a balance, the walls tell it all
Tell me the stories, let me hear it now, tell me about the times we've felt so small
They've got a grasp on us, controlling us with their weekly schedules, they stand proud and tall
The multi-colored carpets soak up the grotesque unidentified stains
Soaks up the light, brings out the darkness, takes up the energy, soaks up the pain
Don't wanna be here, can't stand this ******' place, don't tell me I've only got myself to blame
When I'm to stare out the window yearning to be outside so I can stand out in the rain
If there's truely a God, I'll never understand why he brought this upon me and not the others
Was it really necessary to take away my everything and force me to recover
Was there even anything to overcome, as I slowly lose myself, I begin to wonder
It's not like I'm here to save anyone, I'm no angel undercover
Why try to fix someone who doesn't want help, who refuses to be fixed?
I'm just another broken record to you, just another **** up in the mix
They're breaking me down, they've broke me, I'm a malfunciton, I'm on the ritz
One with the weather, resembling a tornado, my life's one twist after twist
I've got to admit, you've thrown a fast one at me world
The fast *****, the curve *****, ******' a, they're all gettin' real absurd
HOW CAN I BE SCREAMING AT THEM FOR FIFTY-FIVE ******* DAYS AND STILL NOT BE HEARD
I don't even know what to do anymore, I can't even think, I'm at a loss for words
And I'm nothing more than a *client

The word is turning, slowly turning
All the while I've been burning, slowly burning
It seems that everything has burst into flames
Although the fire is mine it refuses to be tamed
No matter how hard I try, some things will never be the same
I must keep moving along, I must remain sane

The fire grows rapidly, the surrounding turn to ashes
Not a single soul could be saved with even the quickest reactions
The building up in smoke are crumbling to the ground
I sit upon the hilltop knowing it's all been destroyed without a sound
All alone off in the distance, waiting so patiently to be found
There's no need to worry, eventually someone will come around

Wondering who will be my savior and where they might be
I rest against the only thing left, the last, lonely tree
Just me, myself and I left with the lonley tree and our misery
Looking away from the destruction, the only savior is me

These words, the illusion...
Coherrent with a hit of color fusion
Slowly killing me, but ****, does it feel good to be usin'
From the looks of it, it's Hannah Eich against the world at large
Making myself a new path for others to follow 'cause I take charge
Just call me a druggie, burntout hippie if you please
That's a part of who I am, it's inside of me
It's what I breathe...it's what I need
A reality that doesn't exist is all my brain likes to eat
Continuing on my journey, barefoot, dragging my feet
All my movements are illustrated by the beats

A labyrinth attracting me with it's undescribed beauty
Putting me in a state with uncertainty
Trembling, as I try to find the right direction
Unsure where one path could lead me
Knowing what lies at the end of this puzzle is a mystery
Suddenly recognizing this maze by it's cruel trickery
I have come out before feeling unwanted, hurt and lonely
But I have conquered feeling joyful, loved and the rightful owner of beauty
There was a time I have said no, I could never
But at this moment...I want this to last forever
