[Verse 1] Help me, somebody, help me I wonder where I am I see my future before me I'll hurt you when I can [Chorus] It seems like I've been here before It seems like I've been here before It seems like I've been here before It seems like I've been here before [Verse 2] Confusion sprung up from devotion A halo that covers my eyes It stands from this first estrangement No one have I ever despised [Bridge] Is this the way that you wanted to pay? Won't you show me, please, show me the way Is this the way that you wanted to pay? Won't you show me, please, show me the way Show me, show me, show me, show me, show me
