Spent so long following the beaten pathThe one lit up with tales of the right wayBut I've been on this path for yearsAnd I'm nowhere near where I wanna beSo I'm gonna turn here andGo down that dark trailAnd let the fire in me light the wayTempting me with the easy roadThe one that's been tried and trueBut for me that just won't doI don't wanna make it to the other sideWith my dreams as the sacrifice
