A Given Choice Lyrics


A stormy day surrounds me

Angry at something somebody said

I let that energy drive me

It builds and wells inside me

I made a choice to ignore the voice

Something I now wish I hadn't done

I made a choice to ignore the voice,

and now my trouble has just begun

Ignoring what I knew in spite

In infrared, not ultraviolet light

I let that energy bind me

I let it build up to blind me

I made a choice to ignore the voice

Something I now wish I hadn't done

I made a choice to ignore the voice,

and now my trouble has just begun

Free will, a lock on the door

I must find the key once more

Lies and the pain, a poor decision I made

A dark night of the soul, allowing my ego

I must find a way to right this wrong

Now I pray and scream to God

to help me end this wicked game

I made a choice to ignore the voice

Something I now wish I hadn't done

I made a choice to ignore the voice,

and now my trouble has just begun

I made a choice to ignore the voice

Something I now wish I'd - wish I'd never done

I made a choice to ignore the voice,

and now my mind - my mind is on the run
