Two Roads
[Verse 1]
I came across a forest
Of unfamiliar trees
And a path beyond the fork is
Is calling out to me

[Refrain]
I wouldn't dare
I wouldn't dare

[Verse 2]
There is magic in this moment
The rustling of the leaves
Do I give in to the warning?
Give up stability?

[Refrain]
I wouldn't dare
I wouldn't dare

[Pre-Chorus]
But what if it is everything I wanted? (What if it is everything I wanted?)
Everything I said I didn't need (Everything I need)
When I convince myself of paradise from paintings
I'm better off because I never bleed
Two roads (Two roads)
Hah
[Chorus]
And I don't know the way, no
I don't, I don't know the way
Past the unknown (Oh, hah)
If nothing else would changе
No, if you promised nothing'd change
I would take thе one less travelled by

[Verse 3]
Why have I been fearing
An aching that will fade?
Must the sun have reason
To make the seasons change?

[Refrain]
I wouldn't dare (I dare)
I wouldn't dare

[Verse 4]
'Cause I've built my life around the thought
Of landmines in the ground
Terrified to take a step
Even more to make a sound

[Refrain]
But now I am there (Now I am there)
So send me a prayer (Send me a prayer)
[Pre-Chorus]
For everything I said I never wanted (Everything I said I never wanted)
When I tried to make myself believe (Make myself believe)
That I could pirate paradise from paintings
I look ahead now all that I can see
Two roads (Two roads)
Ah-aah, hah

[Chorus]
And I don't know the way, no
I don't, I don't know the way
Past the unknown (Oh, hah)
If nothing else would change
No, if you promised nothing'd change, oh

[Bridge]
I'll keep the first for another day
But knowing way leads on to way
I'm never looking back
No, I'm never looking back
Prayed into my pillowcase
Just dreaming of the sweet escape
I'm never looking back
No, I'm never coming back to

[Outro]
Two roads (Ahh)
If I don't find my way on my own
Then one day it will be too late
