[Instrumental Intro]


[Verse 1]

Here I am standing, darkness all around

Thinking of past, taking my last breath

Air is cold as ice

No one close to hear my voice

Didn't leave me with a choice

Heaven will you wait for me?


[Chorus]

Will I find a way? Will I find a place?

Will you let me go in peace?

Will I find a way to the other side?


[Verse 2]

Sad are memories from the life I lived

Cannot go on, cannot go further

It has to end right here

For the things that I have done

All the girls I lost and won

Let me rest in peace at last


[Chorus]

Will I find a way? Will I find a place?

Will you let me go in peace?

Leave behind those dark days

Now I ask again will you hear my cries?

Then you realize why, oh why

I must find a way to the other side


[Guitar Solo]


[Bridge]

Hear them whisper, calling out my name

The sentence is set, the hammer has fallen

I have paid the price

Sad to realize, too late

Death was meant to be my fate

All this pain will follow me


[Chorus]

Will I find a way? Will I find a place?

Will you let me go in peace?

Leave behind those dark days

Now I ask again will you hear my cries?

Then you realize why, oh why

I must find a way to the other side
