Wrong Turn Lyrics by Dialectrix

Cycles Of Survival

2008

[Verse 1]
Before I sat and relaxed in this peaceful state
There's many things which I had to alleviate
There's many things that were hard to release with change
Most of us don't learn the easy way
I've had my fair share of drugs and my fair share of violence
Fair share of pubs, clubs, and all-nighters
Relationships - they made me skitz
But I stomach the downfalls and take them in
It's a puzzling world, it's hard to make shit fit
It's a challenge like a parent trying to raise ten kids
It's one step forwards and two steps backwards
And, what's important, we soon stop to practice
I've been a boy, and a man who got burned
And I've seen the barren landscape of a wrong turn
I'm only 21, I've got a lot more to learn
And I'm sure I'll learn more in the long-term
It's like:

[Chorus]
Sometimes we take a wrong turn
If we try we can get back on track again
And faults in the past can lead to improvement
Learn from mistakes and just keep moving

Sometimes we take a wrong turn
If we try we can get back on track again
And faults in the past can lead to improvement
Learn from mistakes and just keep moving

[Verse 2]
If you were there, and saw how my family split
When my world crashed down, and calamity hit
You would've seen the tragic detour
Down the liquid devil river lighting wicks to my c4
Vice was a bottle and that's what I reached for
Lost in oblivion move ignorantly forward
'till I backtracked and re-formed
And the journey gave a new appreciation to a clean norm
A lot of people see shit in their lives
I find the dark days give a definition of light
I find the dark days and the truly miserable times
Are the ones that give us strength and the will to survive
And at the time it might not be easy, I know this
When all avenues will seem hopeless
With all these sensations, experimentation
Can lead to the road less taken

[Chorus]
Sometimes we take a wrong turn
If we try we can get back on track again
And faults in the past can lead to improvement
Learn from mistakes and just keep moving

Sometimes we take a wrong turn
If we try we can get back on track again
And faults in the past can lead to improvement
Learn from mistakes and just keep moving

[Verse 3]
I'm no preacher, no saint, no teacher, no sage
And I know it's cliché but no pain, no gain
I've learned to accept some things won't change
But you've got a chance though, if you hold faith
I don't know my destination yet, I bet
I'll make plenty of mistakes again and again
I respect that with faith you won't see what's ahead
You won't learn a lesson if you hold the press
I guess it's just a mixed bag, draw it up
When you travel down life and the course is rough
When we don't know we hold support for us
When we don't know what type of wars will come
And you gotta keep moving on
Even when the turns that we take are the ones that are wrong
It's the ones that are wrong that are keeping us strong
So we get to the place we belong

[Chorus]
Sometimes we take a wrong turn
If we try we can get back on track again
And faults in the past can lead to improvement
Learn from mistakes and just keep moving

Sometimes we take a wrong turn
If we try we can get back on track again
And faults in the past can lead to improvement
Learn from mistakes and just keep moving

Sometimes we take a wrong turn
If we try we can get back on track again
And faults in the past can lead to improvement
Learn from mistakes and just keep moving

Sometimes we take a wrong turn
If we try we can get back on track again
And faults in the past can lead to improvement
Learn from mistakes and just keep moving

Life stays that way
Life stays that way
Life stays that way
