Turn My Way

[lateniteslesley]

I went through every single CD I own and decided if it was worth keeping. I picked apart about 75 mix CDs and imported songs that I used to own when the CDs were made, but I've long forgotten, and pitched the rest. One song that I've had playing loop since this overly-emotional CD thinning out has been this New Order song featuring Billy Corgan: "Turn My Way." It's a beautiful song, and while listening to the lyrics (which I rarely do), it's like I should be next to Billy singing it. Ah well. I encourage everyone to at least listen to the song, it's fantastic.

Take my hand
And don't let go
Trust this man
And let it flow

Don't take me down
Cause I'm not done
Don't steal my crown
Before it's won
The wide expanse
The wheel of chance
Will turn my way
The sky will not be gray

I don't wanna be like other people are
Don't wanna own a key, don't wanna wash my car
Don't wanna have to work like other people do
I want it to be free, I want it to be true

I drank in every bar in town
I filled my cup when I was down
I saw the things I wanted to see
Became the man I wanted to be
But then somehow I lost my way
I've got to get back there today

I don't wanna be like other people are
Don't wanna own a key, don't wanna wash my car
Don't wanna have to work like other people do
I want it to be free, I want it to be true

Tought that I was right
Tought that I was right
Tought that I was right
Tought that I was right
Tought that I was right
Tought that I was right
