Crossroads Songtext
von Avenged Sevenfold

I′ve been travelling for so long
So lost 'til I stumbled upon two roads in front of me, I had to take my time
To the right, I could see a church
I took a step in that direction first
But to the left, there was a watering hole, where they were whiskey drunk
And now, that′s where I want to pray

The fight down here goes on and on

If I was perfect, then, this would be easy
Either road is plausible on both, I could drown
I walk through the centre with no rules to guide me
I realize it's difficult, but now, I can see

There's got to be another way to go
A way that′s much more feasible
A combination of both these lives
A central path, without choosing a side
I make decisions one at a time
And no, I never say I′m always right
I'm confident that when I stand on my own
You′ll see the truest form of a man when I'm shining through


Oh, the fight down here goes on and on

If I was perfect, then, this would be easy
Either road is plausible on both, I could drown
I walk through the centre with no rules to guide me
I realize it′s difficult, but now, I can see

Oh, I hear them now, all the religious rhyme
You're a sin, you′re a sin, you're a sinner

The left isn't better, it′s just more of the same
Condemning all these people for what they believe
I′ll climb to the top of their mountain again
No harness up to save me this way
And the closer to the top I get, the more they take aim
But I'm not you

I may not be perfect, but, I′ve always been true
I may not be worthy in your eyes
Climb up from the bottom for the last time
The last one, the last one, the last time


If I was perfect, then, this would be easy
Either road is plausible on both, I could drown
I walk through the centre with no rules to guide me
I realize it's difficult, but now, I can see, yeah
