WINDOW TO MY SOUL / A SONG LYRIC

HOW MANY ROADS

Written by : JR Hilton  June 30/2012

BENT AND BUSTED, I KNEW I SHOULDN'T HAVE TRUSTED

TIME WOULD BE KIND

BROKEN AND MENDED,  I KNEW I SHOULD HAVE TENDED TO MY SOUL MORE

THE THINGS THAT I KNEW WERE IMPORTANT

I THOUGHT WOULD ALWAYS BE THERE

I WAS WRONG,  OH BOY  WAS I WRONG

TIME AND TIME AGAIN

I WAS ONCE I WAS TWICE I WAS THREE TIMES IN A PLACE IN MY LIFE

I THOUGHT THAT I COULD STAY

I THOUGHT THAT IT WOULD BE OKAY

I WAS WRONG AND NOW IT'S ALL GONE

SCATTERED TO THE WINDS TO HANG THERE IN TIME

IN IT'S NEW REALITY

chorus

NOW EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE IS GONE

HOW MANY ROADS DO I HAVE TO TAKE

 SEEMS EVERY ONE SO FAR HAS BEEN A MISTAKE

I'M PUSHING BACK BUT I KNOW WHAT I'M UP AGAINST

ALWAYS A FIGHT TO KEEP ANYTHING I DARE CALL MINE

MAYBE ALL I NEED IS ME,  TO WALLOW IN THIS MISERY

EVEN THOUGH THAT'S NOT WHAT I BELIEVE

AND I'VE COME SO FAR

STILL LOOKING FOR MY LUCKY STARS

HOW MANY ROADS

NOW EVERY DAYS A STRUGGLE TO STAY HERE

WHEN THE SUN SHINES BEFORE THE SKIES GET DARK

CLOUDING OVER TO RAIN ON ME AGAIN

THAT GLIMMER OF HOPE AND THEN I FIND MYSELF

TAKING SHELTER PALE AS WHITE

WHY DOES IT ALWAYS HAVE TO BE A FIGHT

IS THERE ONLY PEACE AT THE END

ALL THESE EMOTIONS DANCING IN A KALEIDOSCOPE

SHAKE IT UP AGAIN COULD THERE BE ANY HOPE

MAKE IT REAL AND MAKE IT MINE

MAKE IT SWEET LIKE BLACKBERRY WINE

SOMETIMES I WISH THAT I COULD CLOSE MY EYES

OPEN THEM AGAIN TO SUNNY SKIES

THAT GO ON FOREVER

BUT JUST LIKE ALWAYS I NEVER SEE IT FOR LONG

NEVER GET TO BE IT BECAUSE IT NEVER TAGS ALONG

FREE IS JUST A STATE OF MIND,  I CAN'T SEEM TO GRASP

HAPPINESS IS FLEETING AS SURE AS TIME IS PAST

IF YOU WANT TO TAKE A CHANCE ON ME

HERE'S WHAT'S LEFT OF MY HEART
