Symphony X Lyrics
"Awakenings"

Needless to say, another day has passed away
Yet everything, and nothing, has changed
Awake I lie, my thoughts get lost up in the sky
Needless to say, nothing will change

Maybe a mystic with fortunes to tell
Surrender my coin at the old wishing well
Maybe the stars will align in the night
To show me the path that is right

Would've been's and could've been's
They waste my days away
The colors of my life dissolve and fade to gray

So many paths of promise
Indecision poisons my mind
If only I had seen the signs, so blind
Ohh, so blind

Oh oh
Yet I must journey on
On and on

A haunting vision torments me
It smothers and steals my dreams
I see an old man in the mirror
Cold and bitter starring back at me

Here I am
At the crossing of life I stand
On my own
Looking down the road
Hear my cry
Answer me
Still I'm searching
Yet the truth is unknown
Though the night is cold
I walk the road alone

Here I am
At the crossing of life I stand
On my own
Looking down the road
Hear my cry
Answer me
Still I'm searching
Yet the truth is unknown
Though the night is cold
I walk the road alone

Yes I walk
I walk the road alone
