The third and final act of the grand piece “A Dark Road Out of Hell” concludes Deryck’s journey out of his depression. Throughout the song he describes how he needs no one, how time won’t heal his wounds, and how some questions about life will never be answered.
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Take my breath away
I don't need it anyway
'Cause I'm fine here in my own forgotten world
Where I can be myself
Left with the hand I'm dealt
And it's hard to get a grip, when you're holding onto something
You just let slip away
[Pre-Chorus]
All these thoughts stuck in my mind
Spinning round like endless time
For once in my life...
[Chorus]
I do wanna feel something you call real
But I don't think that I've got time for these scars to heal
And the days just go by leaving questions in my mind
I guess, I'll find the answers someday in another life
[Verse 2]
Here with my old friend
The silence in the end
And it rings so loud that I cannot pretend
If I just close my eyes
And ask a thousand whys
Will it change or stay the same? Will it ever go away?
The question still remains
[Pre-Chorus]
All these thoughts stuck in my mind
Spinning round like endless time
For once in my life...
[Chorus]
I do wanna feel something you call real
But I don't think that I've got time for these scars to heal
And the days just go by leaving questions in my mind
I guess, I'll find the answers someday in another life
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Warning signs read desolation
On the road of desperation
"Happiness machines," I'm coming clean
What can you do for me?
[Chorus]
I do wanna feel something you call real
But I don't think that I've got time for these scars to heal
And the days just go by leaving questions in my mind
I guess, I'll find the answers someday in another life
[Post-Chorus]
Ohh, ohh, ohhh, ohh, oh...
[Outro]
(Ohh, ohh, ohhh, ohh, oh, ohh, ohh, ohhh, ohh, oh...)
So here now I stand at the end of "a dark road out of hell"
It's not so hard as I depart, what a way to become a man...
