I'm lost and confused; I had everything I needed
But I left it all behind
Don't know what to do; I'm broken and defeated
And I can't make up my mind
So I keep on movin'; this road goes on for miles
And there is no end in sight
My point not yet proven; been tryin' for a while
To make all of my wrongs right

[chorus]
There's a fork in the road to nowhere
Don't know which way to go.
There's no one that I can turn to
And nobody here I know.
All I want is to just go home
But I can't find my way there.
And so I continue down this road,
This road which goes nowhere.

Can't think for my life; my mind races every second
And the sun starts to go down.
Make a left or right; with no sense of direction
And no sign of any town.
But I cannot rest; not even for a second
'Cause I won't start up again.
For this is my test; my destiny has beckoned:
To see where this road will end.

[chorus]
There's a fork in the road to nowhere
Don't know which way to go.
There's no one that I can turn to
And nobody here I know.
All I want is to just go home
But I can't find my way there.
And so I continue down this road,
This road which goes nowhere.

[bridge]
This road is now my life
A life spent in a daze
Thinking that I was right
In every of my ways
My mind is simply worn
Under this crimson sky
On this road I was born
And on this road I'll die

[chorus]
There's a fork in the road to nowhere
Don't know which way to go.
There's no one that I can turn to
And nobody here I know.
All I want is to just go home
But I can't find my way there.
And so I continue down this road,
This road which goes nowhere.
This was a while in the making. Don't even remember when I started this one. At least six months ago. Got stuck in the second verse a while back and finally decided to finish this son of a gun. ;P

In any case, this song is about the confusion we can feel in life; times when you just feel like... "man, what am i supposed to do now?" it does tie in with the whole "road of life" deal, but that's almost self-explanatory.

Enjoy! [nz]
