lyrics

Don't Refrain
===========

For twenty nine years, it's been so long
Since I felt the rain
Or heard a song
For twenty nine years, maybe more
I've been in pain
Staring at the door

And where will I go now
Out into this dark world
My friend?
And where can I go now
That I'm free, free to be anyone
In the end?

Don't stop to patronize
Don't stop the tears in my eyes
Don't stop all the pain
Don't remain, don't refrain

The road to hell is paved
With good intentions
But we walk this road
Of our own free will
Our choices are
Our only constraints
A prison of our
Own making
So I walk the road
Encumbered by my freedom
Hoping to choose
The shortest destined path

Don't stop to patronize
Don't stop the tears in my eyes
Don't stop all the pain
Don't remain, don't refrain

I walk through the night
I still see the light
