Outro - Repeat Intro


It was meant to be but all along, it never meant to end,
Never stopped to ask you why, the feeling’s passing by
Did you see me in your light, right before your eyes
Was it just that I didn’t want to know, didn't know

Don’t be demised, Confusion.

Wait, wait there’s a world out there
Don’t give me my way
Give me one last wish
Don’t give me my way

Never meant to re-offend, unfold all your mystery
The devil’s telling me to sin, but he just don’t know how
Tell me lies don’t tell me when
Tell me your __________
I will let you go around again around again

Don’t be demised, Confusion.

Wait! wait! there’s a world out there
Don’t you be my brain
Give me one last wish
Don’t give me my way
Give me one last wish
Don’t give me my way

BRIDGE:
Every time you’re leaving
Late upon an evening
Turn out all the lights, then go to bed
Here I get this feeling, I know I will believe in
When I wake these ghosts are far past me

back to chorus



Don't you see my way
