Where would you rather be?
Anywhere, anywhere but here
When will the time be right?
Anywhere, anywhere but here
Anywhere, anywhere but here
I was drifting for half the night
Pressed down by the darkness
Bound up and wound up so tight, so tight
So many decisions, a million revisions
Caught between darkness and light
I run between the shadows
Some are phantoms, some are real
Where would you rather be?
Anywhere, anywhere but here
When will the time be right?
Where would you rather be?
I know would all disappear
I heard voices behind the door
The known and the nameless
My angels and my demons at war, at war
Which one will lose depends on what I choose
Or maybe which voice I ignore
My precious sense of honor
Just a shield of rusty wire
And the cross of holy fire
Where would you rather be?
Anywhere, anywhere but here
When will the time be right?
Where would you rather be?
I know would all disappear
My precious sense of rightness
On the edge of sleep, I awoke to a sun so bright
Rested and fearless, cheered by your nearness
I knew which direction was right, was right
The case had been tried by the jury inside
The choice between darkness and light
The choice between darkness and light
