 Well so here  I am at the end  of the road. Where  do I go from  here?
I  always figured it wouldbe  like this. Still nothing  seems to be quite clear
 All the  words have been  spoken and the prophecy fulfilled
 But I just  can't decide which way to go
 Yes, it's been  quite a day  and I should  go to sleep
 But tomorrow  I will wake  up and I'll know
 That I've  got to begin again, though I don't  know how start
 Yes, I've  got to begin again.  But it's so hard  (pause)
 Well it's been  quite a while since I lifted  my head. And I'm sure  the
 will hurt my eyes
I  see the way that I been spending  my days, and reality  has caught me by surprise
 I was dreamin'  of tomorrow  so I sacrificed today
 And it sure  was a grand waste of time
 And despite  all the truth  that's been thrown  in my face
 I just can't  get you out  of my mind
 But I've  got to begin again, though I don't  know how start
 Yes, I've  got to begin again.  But it's so hard  Yes it'shard
 ooh ooh
