I was standing there In the heart of crossroads Blindly staring at the unfamiliar road signs Traffic lights must have misheard my wheeze They shifted before I could breathe Inexorable headlights race towards the freezing me As if magnet and metal were meant to be I am here, facing back Tracing the road I wanted to wrack With thought of facing the crack Measuring the weight to repack Memories of morning sun heating away the haze Passion of youth in this town had become blase Fleeting replays of ugly truths in these old days So I stepped out the lies builded with ablaze I will be moving, starting from here By the side of crossroads Slowly walking away from these rusty road signs

I was standing there In the heart of crossroads Blindly staring at the unfamiliar road signs Traffic lights must have misheard my wheeze They shifted before I could breathe Inexorable headlights race towards the freezing me As if magnet and metal were meant to be I am here, facing back Tracing the road I wanted to wrack With thought of facing the crack Measuring the weight to repack Memories of morning sun heating away the haze Passion of youth in this town had become blase Fleeting replays of ugly truths in these old days So I stepped out the lies builded with ablaze I will be moving, starting from here By the side of crossroads Slowly walking away from these rusty road signs
