Wasteland Lyrics

Should you go or should you stay?

Do you feel destiny calling?

Could you sail away and leave it all right now?

You said there's no time to waste

It began without questions.

Felt so normal, felt so right.

Then you were dazzled by distant bright lights

The chance of something different that you couldn't have here.

Leave behind the past cos there's nothing to fear

So you drift in different directions.

Reaching new shores.

A stranger to yourself always looking for more

Everything is possible

You've broken free from your moorings into the open sea

It feels like life's a wasteland.

Full of the rubble, the fallout of broken dreams

You're still looking for the right hand to hold

The search goes on

Even when you look behind the scenes

Leave the wasteland full of your broken dreams

Not the promised land

It's harder than it seems

Should you go or should you stay?

Do you feel destiny calling?

A choice as old as time

Will you leave it all behind

Or take part of it with you?

Will you take the chance?

You leave the harbour and you cross the ocean

Lost at times in the merciless sea

Reach the new worlds you've been searching for

Stand in line to step ashore

You thought it would be different but it all looks the same.

Crowded with others also searching in vain

Only then you realise the things you left behind

Could be more precious than what you might find

Please give me your hand

Hold it tight. Don't let it go

There's so much wasted time.

You seek but you don't always find

Make the most of what you've brought with you

Leave the wasteland leave the faded dreams

And those crazy childish schemes

Leave the wasteland

It's in your head.

Safe again on dry land

Feet firmly on the ground

This journey's over for now.

Is it harder to stay?

Follow your head or follow your heart?

When you sail away.

The past is in front of you.

You can't avoid it

You can't run away if the wasteland's inside you

You can't escape it.

So why don't you stay?
