Queensryche - Roads To Madness Lyrics
Most of this is memory nowIve gone too far to turn back nowIm not quite what I thought I was butThen again Im maybe moreThe blood-words promised, Ive spokenReleasing the names from the circleMaybe I can leave here now and, oTranscend the boundariesFor now Im standing hereIm awaiting this grand transitionThe future is but past forgottenOn the road to madnessTimes measure rusts as it crawlsI see its face in the looking glass - stopThis screaming laughter hides, the pain of its realityBlack, the door was locked I openedAnd now Ive paid that price ten-fold overKnowledge - was it worth such torment, ohTo see the far side of shadowAnd still Im standing hereIm awaiting this grand transitionIm a fool in search of wisdomAnd Im on the road to madnessYes, Im on the road to madnessIm awaiting endlesslyPounding rhythms echo meWont you take me somewhere far beyond the voidAnd still Im standing hereIm awaiting this grand transitionMaybe one day, oh Ill meet you, and wellWalk the roads to madnessYes, were on the road to madnessOh, I think theyve come to take meI hear the voice, but theres no-one to seeI cant scream, too late its timeStay on the course to passYoull never find the answerTo a place where darkened angelsSeemed lost and never foundScream to see the light ofForming figures fast behind youLay the past in the wind to spinAnd your fate will sail beyond the open plainsSail with angels onwardLive or die for the chosen one saidSaber sights cast a spell behind youAnd they lock in all aroundFree the scene insiderNever looking back to find whyRide a course till the end of timeAnd youll stand atop the gateLaying waste in a path recitedFighting force wont avenge the guided black wingOh, electric might poses fright inside meSeeing light at the end of sight reminds meIve passed away
