Kelly 6 You lived a life going no where Your days were full of despair You had no morals to guide you Love wasn't a feeling you shared Following the world to destruction Your soul grieved with pain Wondering why you continued living Just going on from day to day Lost in the heat of passion You fell for one of the devils traps Your heart felt no sorrow for this action You felt that there was no way back Why did you have to do what you did Why did you have to live the way you lived You didn't know there was a better way Lost in the darkness trying to find your way Somewhere you wondered off the road That would lead you back home Thinking you were on a permanent detour The way back wasn't known Feeling all alone in the world You thought that no one cared Only doing what you thought was expected Doing anything you dared All the while there was some one reaching out for you But you couldn't see his hand Your best friend who always loved you From the beginning had a plan He tried to be your light in the darkness He wanted to help ease the pain He tried to teach you the right way to live So you could be with him once again You didn't hear him calling you Gently he said come follow me Just do what I ask you to do And you will be with me for eternity Lost with the world Wondering what life is about Feeling that you've had enough Finally you start to cry out He heard your cry And showed you the way back home But it's your choice Which way you want to go You lived a life going no where But now you found the path You were headed for destruction But now you found your way To the straight and narrow The way back home.
