MOTYPE is actually the name of my band, which turned into a one-man-project...

Title: The Road Ahead

[ verse ]

it feels like something is wrong
still don't know where you belong
looking back at the first part
you wish you could just restart

the clouds ahead almost black
you simply cannot go back
this is where you are today
from here you will find your way


[ chorus ]

how did you end up here
this is not where you want to be
you once had a vision you say
something went wrong on the way
but the road is ahead, not behind
the road is ahead, not behind
the road is ahead, not behind, it's not behind

The Road Ahead [variation] - Comback Holm (c) 2013 [Songwriting Assignment #4]

[ Verse 1 ]

during the day you can't see me, but I'm always around
my dark side always hidden, since time began
you can feel the attraction, though out of reach I stand


[ Verse 2 ]

I do you no harm, like the ones being close
I see all your sadness, I see all your shine
but the void will stay with me, you will never be mine


[ Chorus ]

more than friends to each other
but too distant to be lovers
we're damned and always bound
to this merry-go-round


[ Verse 3 ]

condemned to our distance, till the end of all days
defy the attraction, don't break adrift
we both would be lost, if we stopped to resist


[ Chorus ]

more than friends to each other
but too distant to be lovers
we're damned and always bound
to this merry-go-round
