New Direction lyrics

I put my finger on the pain
it was nothing, it was just the smell
after the rain
it was nothing, it was
just the warm ground beneath my feet
I put my finger on the pain
it was nothing,
it wasjust the shadow of her ghost,
it was nothing it was just the feeling
that most things are ugly
that most things are ugly round here
- did I ever take my eyes off the horizon?
lead the way from this place
and point me out a new direction
everyone keep saying I'll be fine, fine, fine
I wonder if I'll wake one day to find my life
waisted behind me

I took a peek into the sun
to see if it was true
what the blind girl said:
"if you look long enough,
you will see the dead coming down..."
I took a look into her eyes,
I saw nothing but the sky
and everlasting love
and the feeling I've been blinded ever since
the day I was brought here,
ever since the day I was brought to this place

Did I ever take my mind off something dirty?
always out of range. but I'll be feeling like
this 'til I drop dead,
and everyone keep saying
a lie is just a lie, lie, lie
just hope that I can fool myself,
then I know I'll be alright
so lead the way from this place
and point me out a new direction
