We've traveled along the edges of the earth.
along the line where earth and water meet.
only taking the left turns.
finding what we're kept seeking for all this time
we pressed our feet agaisnt the battlefields.
remembering why we're all here.
the world was always straight forward.
never given a choice on what we could do.
our paths paved gold the day we were born.
But was soon to learn that that the gold
didn't have the value that a dirt road had.
so we gathered in town square
we ran through the ever green forest
rushing from what the elders called "fate".
each pressed step forming a dirt road
one that has never been traveled by.
we all stop in the center of the crossroad.
there was 4 ways to choose from.
one led to the darkness.
one led to the everlasting light.
one led to frozen twilight.
while the other led to a mystery.
each one one of use
ran on each one
this is where we parted.
we gave our selves a chance to decide,
where we wanted to go.
That was the wonder of a crossroad.
each path leading you, into a new
story.
along the line where earth and water meet.
only taking the left turns.
finding what we're kept seeking for all this time
we pressed our feet agaisnt the battlefields.
remembering why we're all here.
the world was always straight forward.
never given a choice on what we could do.
our paths paved gold the day we were born.
But was soon to learn that that the gold
didn't have the value that a dirt road had.
so we gathered in town square
we ran through the ever green forest
rushing from what the elders called "fate".
each pressed step forming a dirt road
one that has never been traveled by.
we all stop in the center of the crossroad.
there was 4 ways to choose from.
one led to the darkness.
one led to the everlasting light.
one led to frozen twilight.
while the other led to a mystery.
each one one of use
ran on each one
this is where we parted.
we gave our selves a chance to decide,
where we wanted to go.
That was the wonder of a crossroad.
each path leading you, into a new
story.
