Every path I take leads me nowhere When where I want to go is home I wish that I could choose the right way I'm sick and tired of being alone All my friends and all my family All those I ever cared about They lie awake at night and miss me But I can't reach them by this route All my ghosts and all my memories All those who were ever so devout They all cry and weep tears for me But I cannot look back now And when all paths lead me to nowhere And I cannot get back home All my friends and all my family Will have to be alone And every song I sing is depressing Every chord a minor sound Every day i stand here missing them But my feet won't leave the ground And I'm not on my way to Heaven I won't sleep in Elysium I will not join my fallen kin God above won't call me home But if I gathered all the starlight That I gazed upon on my way The glow would just be strong enough To turn the black to gray

Every path I take leads me nowhere When where I want to go is home I wish that I could choose the right way I'm sick and tired of being alone All my friends and all my family All those I ever cared about They lie awake at night and miss me But I can't reach them by this route All my ghosts and all my memories All those who were ever so devout They all cry and weep tears for me But I cannot look back now And when all paths lead me to nowhere And I cannot get back home All my friends and all my family Will have to be alone And every song I sing is depressing Every chord a minor sound Every day i stand here missing them But my feet won't leave the ground And I'm not on my way to Heaven I won't sleep in Elysium I will not join my fallen kin God above won't call me home But if I gathered all the starlight That I gazed upon on my way The glow would just be strong enough To turn the black to gray
