lyrics

in sun i was walking, through hot summer air
yet head hanging low, with the new weight i bare
i scrounge for a cure, for the beyond compare
so great and so awful, the excited scare

that’s when i saw it, the soothsayer’s door
right through the threshold, i want to know more
the enigma greeted me, draped to the floor
and i move my way through, the macabre décor

alone with my will, in a mysterious space
and I need a refill, a pull to enlace
been running uphill, i long for embrace
hunting for a thrill, i’m hot on the case

i want to know, i want to know
won’t you tell me?
i want to know, i want to know
won’t you tell me?

o wise one, i beg you, won’t you help me please?
i’ll follow your guide, wherever it leads,
whatever it takes, whatever you need,
i want the answer, how should i proceed?

oh seer of seers, master of ways,
he said search the aether, “stare in the haze”
i looked in the mist, and locked with your gaze,
and i couldn’t help but see the rest of my days…

holding on to a vision, what we do is the same,
a wonderful apparition, a window without a frame,

a beautiful addition, the bellows to a flame.
light of my ambition, i won’t forget your name.

i want to know, i want to know,
won’t you tell me?
i want to know, i want to know,
won’t you tell me?

let me walk beside ya
let me walk beside ya
let me walk beside ya
let me walk
