Fork in the Road

Sometimes you start with great aspirations in life, but end up making a poor decision that leads to the wrong path, and an even larger list of wrong decisions. How do you get back from that bad road?

I took a wrong turn at the fork in the road,
Now I'm wondering how to turn back again.
The compass keeps pointing this way and that,
I keep circling back to this same place again.
And it's not like I want to be here
And I certainly don't want to stay
But I just can't seem to get my footing
Oh how do I find my way?

Take my hand
Bring me to you
Take my hand
Show me what to do
Cause I'm lost without a sense of direction
And I'm trapped within my every flaw
Without you I might as well just give up
Without you I'm eternally lost.

I swore I'd never be a drunk again
And look at happened there
I swore to love myself as I am
Now what others think is my every care
I hate feeling so weak
I don't want to be insecure
But how do I change my every thought
When of myself I am so unsure?

Take my hand
Bring me to you
Take my hand
Show me what to do
Cause I'm lost without a sense of direction
And I'm trapped within my every flaw
Without you I might as well just give up
Without you I'm eternally lost.

It's not like I mean to go wrong
Or fall back when I meant to go forward
I just can't seem to find myself
Or find my place in this oversized world.
Is it possible to love myself
The way I know you love me?
Is it possible to find myself
Without losing who I used to be?

Take my hand
Bring me to you
Take my hand
Show me what to do
Cause I'm lost without a sense of direction
And I'm trapped within my every flaw
Without you I might as well just give up
Without you I'm eternally lost.
REPEAT

I need to break this trend in my habits
I need to find a way out
Because these destructive behaviours
Are just gonna keep bringing me down.
I need you to hold my hand
Guide me every step of the way
Bring me close and don't let go
Lest I go back astray

Take my hand
Bring me to you
Take my hand
Show me what to do
Cause I'm lost without a sense of direction
And I'm trapped within my every flaw
Without you I might as well just give up
Without you I'm eternally lost.
REPEAT X2
