lyrics
I heard the voices in my head so to the studio I fled
To paint the pictures on my wall and feel the ghosts and demons fall
Fought the dragons to the death, broke the silence held my breath
And when the carnival left town, there was no sight there was no sound
Would I have it any other way
So the story rages on, a fool is placed upon the thrown
In the spot light they are drawn, and with relief we watch them fall
So pick the pieces off the ground, try in vein to mend the crown
When all the people turn away, and there is nothing left to say
But would they have it any other way
So I circle round the fire, or take a walk upon a wire
I think there’s nothing left to fear, again the voices I can hear
They tell me I should be afraid, the story tellers gone insane
I place my hand upon a pen, pick it up and start again
And would we have it any other way
And would we choose it any other way
Or could we love it any other way
And the story rages on X4
To paint the pictures on my wall and feel the ghosts and demons fall
Fought the dragons to the death, broke the silence held my breath
And when the carnival left town, there was no sight there was no sound
Would I have it any other way
So the story rages on, a fool is placed upon the thrown
In the spot light they are drawn, and with relief we watch them fall
So pick the pieces off the ground, try in vein to mend the crown
When all the people turn away, and there is nothing left to say
But would they have it any other way
So I circle round the fire, or take a walk upon a wire
I think there’s nothing left to fear, again the voices I can hear
They tell me I should be afraid, the story tellers gone insane
I place my hand upon a pen, pick it up and start again
And would we have it any other way
And would we choose it any other way
Or could we love it any other way
And the story rages on X4
