'Do You Wanna Grow? Or....(Lyrics)



come with me now
and i'll share with you my revelations,
cause i've already been where
you're deciding to go...
oh, no one knows better than i do
how to lay waste to advantage;
how to throw it away,
so hear me when i say;
there's one thing you've go to know...

many's the soul who
believes they control their own future,
but there's no such a thing as
fate divorced from the whole...
your may walk away
that doesn't matter
all of your demons will follow,
and your friends go there too,
but as phantoms with you
so ask yourself as you go;

do ya wanna grow? or
do ya wanna fall?
do ya wanna grow? or
do ya wanna fall?

who is it you'll
leave behind as you wind through the shadows
of anonymous fortune?
it is only yourself.
yes, and no one else
go to the mirror
can't you see that's what we're here for
who you are when you're near us
is who you leave behind.
do you want to lose you?

we are a tapestry
woven with delicate meaning
and the story we're weaving
is of love that we share
oh, don't you care?
why do you try to
unravel the web we're creating
when each threads intertwined
in astounding design.
so tell me, i need to know

do ya wanna grow? or
do ya wanna fall?
do ya wanna grow? or
do ya wanna fall?

oh, come with me now
and i'll show you the ultimate wasteland
cause i've already tasted
of it's blatant despair...you
can't run away
from your emotions
no matter how deeply you wallow
know the wasteland will swallow you
never forfeit your share.
so cold and so lonely there!
