The sum of all my fears like dread Are from demons yet to come All the things I should've mentioned Wave goodbye and "we'll see you soon" It's the words I've never written that say more about myself Where empty is the promise lies a pocket full of doubt
So may the road I've yet to take Leave a smile across my face Till the laughter sheds the darkness far behind For I still belong in the cradle of humankind
Though my time may be less traveled Than those that come before We're all exiles here in madness Kicking down each other's door Unforgiven is the lesson we pour upon ourselves When a helping hand's is needed, A slap in the face is what we get
But I will fight for this right and each moment of its life Till I witness all the differences yet to heal
So may the road I've yet to take Leave a smile across my face Till the laughter sheds the darkness far behind For I still belong in the cradle of humankind
Sometimes drink till I am empty, Grab another from the shelf Though I'm stuck in conversation, It's with myself and no one else Never listen to much reason till I hear it's last call When I notice that ghost is still dancing on his own
So may the road I've yet to take Leave a smile across my face Till the laughter sheds the darkness far behind For I still belong in the cradle of humankind
Wherever you go ([something about the sun]) Wherever you go Wherever you go ([something about passion]) Oh, wherever you go
There will always be a roof and a dream above our heads As long as I'm breathing, then forever I'll be
Ah, I will fight for this right and each moment of its life Till I witness all the differences yet to heal
So may the road I've yet to take Leave a smile across my face Till the laughter sheds the darkness far behind For I still belong in the cradle of humankind
