I kiss the day, there can be no other answer

Turn back the time and let me in

I look away as they stare and all their glances

Now I can tell you where I've been

All alone inside myself

I guess I never knew which way to go

The time has come to know yourself

And I don't want to live that way again

Again, again, again

I'm miles away as I look into the water

And there's a tide that pulls me in

The missing page where there'll be

The sons and daughters

I live and die it's hard to take

Safe within this higher ground

The pleasure and the pain has come and gone

I have been once lost now found

I don't want to live

I don't want to live

There's a light in the distance

And a voice that cries freedom

There's a child in the mirror

Much too long he's been grievin'

I have stumbled thru' madness

Now I've made my decision

And I don't want to live that way again

There's a light in the distance

And a voice that cries freedom

There's a child in the mirror

Much too long he's been grievin'

I have stumbled thru' madness

Now I've made my decision

And I don't want to live that way again

So I, I pull down the shutters

And I, I wave my resistance

And I wait for the sirens

That will ring thru' my head

I was cast as a leper

Now I've replaced my religion

And I don't want to live that way again

And I, I don't want to live that way again

I really don't want to live

I have replaced my religion

[Incomprehensible]

And I don't want to live

And I don't want to live that way again
