Is it this way or that way?

Why must I decide about tomorrow, today?

How should I know what tomorrow will bring in this cold world?

My path and my dreams are fading out of my reach 

If I could see a glimpse of my future I would know which way to go

I would know where my path is and I wouldn't be scared to make choices

Why are you telling me to choose what path I want to take

When I only have my eyes half-closed?

Somebody let me know, tell me which way I should go

Cuz I don’t honestly know

These confusing thoughts are swirling in my mind
It's making my head hurt when I don't know what path I should take

Again today, there are questions

I’m trying to answer but I’m not confident enough to face it on my own

Is it this way or that way that I should go?

I’m afraid of my decisions I will make

With an anxious heart, I’m standing in front of the next choice

Between paths that I’ve never gone on before and scared of

How can I find my way?

I’m afraid day by day

Even when I’m busy with my part-time job, they endlessly ask

I’m going forward but I keep looking back at my painful past

What will I become at the end? 

Will I regret it if I look back later on?
Will I like the future me or will I become a bitter person like my parents?

I hope I won't end up like my parents 

I clench my fists but I’m still timid

But I stop myself and try to have some courage

So I can walk again but

Again today, there are questions

I’m trying to answer but I’m not confident enough to face it on my own

Is it this way or that way?

Is it this way or that way that I should go?

I’m afraid of my decisions I will make

With an anxious heart, I’m standing in front of the next choice

Between paths that I’ve never gone on before

How can I find my way?

I’m afraid day by day

Across the fading days

I’m standing right here

As I let go of another day

That I can’t turn back to no matter what

I cry to the sky for answers but no one answers my begs and pleads

Again today, there are questions

I’m trying to answer but I’m not confident enough to face it on my own

Is it this way or that way?

Is it this way or that way that I should go?

I’m afraid of my decisions I will make

With an anxious heart, I’m standing in front of the next choice

Between paths that I’ve never gone on before

How can I find my way?

I’m afraid day by day

So tell me which way to go
