Two Roads Diverge--Stop

Two roads diverge before me;
I know not which to take—
Stop.
Two roads diverged before me;
I knew not which to take.
So I split my consciousness in half,
and along both roads I—
Stop.
Two roads diverged before me;
I knew not which to take.
The left was filled with bitterness,
so to the right—
Stop.
Two roads diverged before me;
I knew not which to take.
Stopping was not an option,
so to the right I took.
But the left I hear a calling,
calling,
calling—
Stop.
Two roads diverged before me;
I knew not which to take.
Stopping was not an option,
so to the right I took.
I saw the leftern bitterness,
as I see the rightly loneliness—
Stop.
Two roads diverged before me;
I knew not which to take.
Stopping was not an option,
so to the right I took.
But now that I have chosen,
I see the loneliness ahead—
Stop.
Two roads diverged before me;
I knew not which to take.
Stopping was not an option,
so to the right I took.
But now that I have chosen,
my mind is filled with fear.
I have a plan:
I will turn back—
Stop.
Two roads diverged before me;
I knew not which to take.
Stopping was not option,
so to the right I took.
But now that I have chosen,
my mind is filled with fear.
I find myself a wonderin’:
what if left I'd been to take?
So I close my eyes
and teleport myself across—
Stop.
Two roads diverged before me;
I knew not which to take.
Stopping was not an option,
so to the right I took.
But now that I have chosen,
my mind is filled with fear.
I find myself a wonderin’:
what if left I'd been to take?
Because I cannot turn back time
and am forced forward to go,
I dig my heels into the dirt,
and
stop
stop—
Stop.
Two roads diverged before me;
I knew not which to take.
Stopping was not an option,
so to the right I took.
But now that I have chosen,
my mind is filled with fear.
I find myself a wonderin’:
what if left I'd been to take?
Because I cannot turn back time
and am forced forward to go,
I cannot do but trust
trust
trust
that this road will lead me home.
