A Page Unturned - Transition Lyrics

Sliding out as these roads bend and break
They're splitting off and parting ways
I'll leave behind
These mends that I couldn't save
Finding now a sense of disbelief
Anxiety takes hold of me
That's what you pay
For chasing down yesterday
And as I mark off these days I feel all this pressure
Taking the strength out of me
And as I fall on my face here I often wonder
How was this all supposed to be
Lead me here
Can't do this on my own
I'm trying hard just to figure out
A new way down or to reroute
Realizing now that things don't last forever
Every turn a piece is left behind
To fade or wander as time goes by
Holding on just to find another way home
Or somewhere else to go
We looked through all that stood in front of us
Shaping pictures, counting days
Just waiting for
Our moment to come our way
But just like children we draw all our plans in sand
And they wash away with the rain
And every step we take forward we hold on tighter
But somethings will just fade away
Lead me here
Can't do this on my own
I'm trying hard just to figure out
A new way down or to reroute
Realizing now that things don't last forever
Every turn a piece is left behind
To fade or wander as time goes by
Holding on just to find another way home
Or somewhere else to go
These scattered thoughts have torn me
I feel so far behind
Will I still keep on waiting
For a sign
I'll push myself farther from this wreck
Close my eyes and dream taking every step
Hoping that one day I'll find the answer for me
Please
Lead me here
Can't do this on my own
I'm trying hard just to figure out
A new way down or to reroute
Realizing now that things don't last forever
Every turn a piece is left behind
To fade or wander as time goes by
Holding on just to find another way home
Or somewhere else to go
