"The Beaten Path" lyrics

Followed my own footsteps
Time and time again
I thought I'd never see the end

Staring at myself in the mirror
Waiting for me to change
Hoping to break
A habit of repeating history

I was fighting the same battles over and over again
I was lost in the middle of the crowd
Stuck on the beaten path going nowhere fast
But I found my way out off of the beaten path

I made the same mistakes
Over and over again
I thought I'd never see the end

I rode the waves in a shipwreck
Sinking into the sea
Hoping to break
A habit of repeating history

I was fighting the same battles over and over again
I was lost in the middle of the crowd
Stuck on the beaten path going nowhere fast
But I found my way out off of the beaten path

Breaking the chains
As free as the wind
Leading a liberating revolution
Breaking the chains
As free as the wind
Leading a liberating revolution

I was fighting the same battles over and over again
I was lost in the middle of the crowd
Stuck on the beaten path going nowhere fast
But I found my way out

I was fighting the same battles over and over again
I was lost in the middle of the crowd
Stuck on the beaten path going nowhere fast
But I found my way out off of the beaten path
