Lyrics of On My Way
You’ve all been very kind
But I’ve made up my mind
Now I’m about to leave you all behind
I’m feeling so alone
I’m turning down my tone
Before the rise of sun I will be gone
On my way, I’m never coming back
And I’ll pray you’re never gonna crack
World is calling out tonight, telling me I’ll be alright
Lights will guide you through the night
Still hiding in my shell
I’m keeping to myself
I cannot count on anybody else
I’m burning deep inside
I’m giving up the fight
Before the break of dawn I will be gone
On my way, I’m never coming back
And I’ll pray you’re never gonna crack
World is calling out tonight, telling me I’ll be alright
Lights will guide you through the night
Ey yeah yeah… ey yeah yeah…
Ey yeah yeah yeah yeah…
On my way, I’m never coming back
And I’ll pray you’re never gonna crack
World is calling out tonight, telling me I’ll be alright
World is calling out tonight, telling me I’ll be alright
Lights will guide you through the night
On my way
