PLEASE READ to understand - (lyrics below) - a terrific song - requested by C Daae (stacypletcher4166 ) - story follows lyrics. Loads of symbolism - here’s a bit - the white sparkle clip used in the intro is reminiscent of the Phantom casting his net over those who oppose him, as well as the one he wishes to capture - heart, soul, and body. Christine must make a choice - to take the safe road, with Raoul, in a sweet, superficial romance or to conquer her fear and choose the man with whom she shares a strong musical bond, as well as excitement, passion, and a deep abiding love. Trouble is, a life with the Phantom promises danger, because of who and what he is, and because of how others treat him - which she sees more and more with each passing day…. sparkle clips credit - Pond5.
Lyrics to “I Don’t Wanna” performed by Within Temptation
I'm on a road of broken dreams
And I need to know why
Seek the truth through lies to be my guide
I'm in a world of doubt and trust, can't deny
I lost my way here in this quest, can't lie
I can't believe what's happening
I don't know what to say
I can't believe I'd live to see this day
CHORUS
I don't wanna live this way, it haunts my mind
And I just need to get it straight, stop wasting time
And I don't wanna live in fear, but I can't change what's wrong
But I know, won't be living in a lie
Oh, I'll be hanging on the cross
When I put the nails in
It's time to choose a road that we believe in
You say you understand it all, try and smile
If only I could see it's true somehow
I can't believe what's happening
I don't know what to say
And what I wouldn't give to change our fate
CHORUS
And I've tried so hard to hold on
But I keep on falling
And no matter how hard I run
I just keep returning
And I'm back to where I started from
I don't wanna live this way, it haunts my mind
And I just need to get it straight, stop wasting time
I don't wanna live this way, it haunts my mind
And I just need to get it straight, stop wasting time
And I don't wanna live in fear, but I can change what's wrong
But I know, won't be living in a lie
(Coming up: a Calivia vid, more PotO, and an Outlander vid …)
