Within Temptation
"I Don't Wanna" lyrics

I Don't Wanna

I'm on a road of broken dreams
And I need to know why
Seek the truth through lies to be my guide
I'm in a world of doubt and trust
Can't deny
I lost my way here in this quest
Can't lie

I can't believe what's happening
I don't know what to say
I can't believe I left to see
This day

I don't wanna live this way
It haunts my mind
And I just need to get it straight
Stop wasting time
And I don't wanna live and feel
That I can change what's right
But I know
We'll be living in a lie

Oh I'll be hanging on the cross
When I put the nails in
It's time to choose a road that we
Believe in
You say you understand it all
Try and smile
If only I could see it's true somehow

I can't believe what's happening
I don't know what to say
And what I wouldn't give to change
Our fate

I don't wanna live this way
It haunts my mind
And I just need to get it straight
Stop wasting time
And I don't wanna live and feel
That I can change what's right
But I know
We'll be living in a lie

And I've tried so hard to hold on
But I keep on falling
And no matter how hard I run
I just keep returning
And I'm back to where I started from

I don't wanna live this way
It haunts my mind
And I just need to get it straight
Stop wasting time

I don't wanna live this way
It haunts my mind
And I just need to get it straight
Stop wasting time
And I don't wanna live and feel
That I can change what's right
But I know
We'll be living in a lie
