Crossroads (English Version)-Перекрёсток судьбы (Russian Lyrics by Heart of Steel-Crossroads Remix)

[Instrumental]

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
He waited for his hour,
guitar clenched in his hands.
In the dim-lit room
there was pain and a somber flame.

The guitar in his hands
was a gift from his father, an old trace.
A worn-out body,
but in his heart — a ticket to the light.

He scrubbed floors in bars,
polished wooden halls.
Fingers bleeding red,
he played, he dreamed, he asked for no reply.

He wanted a stadium,
where the crowd would roar.
He wanted a name
that the whole country would repeat once more.

[Pre-Chorus]
But his mother lay sick in bed,
and her days were growing short.
She had no one at all,
but her son and the night as support.

He tried to sing,
but he had no strength.
And every step he took
felt like someone was drowning it in mud.

[Chorus]
I want to burn, I want to shine!
I want a thousand hands
reaching up to the sky again!
I want to burn, I want to fly!
I want to live my life
so I’ll never say goodbye!

I want to burn! (I want to burn!)
I want to fly! (I want to fly!)
Let the whole world
start repeating my name!

[Verse 2]
One day, on a gloomy day,
he walked out into the rain.
To the crossroads of fate
his trembling feet carried him through the pain.

He sat down on the asphalt,
pressed the guitar against his chest,
struck the strings,
and sang about the hardest tests.

With pain inside his voice he sang
through the gray haze,
about how fate had struck the dream
with a knife through the side of hope.

His voice broke,
but he did not go silent.
And then, behind his back, the dark
smiled at him through the mist.

[Pre-Chorus]
And someone stepped out
from the cold shadow:
empty eye sockets,
a grin that lures and follows.

And he said, "Boy,
I heard your cry,
and all that you asked for —
ten years of fame, you’ll get them in a flash."

[Chorus]
I want to burn, I want to shine!
I want a thousand hands
reaching up to the sky again!
I want to burn, I want to fly!
I want to live my life
so I’ll never say goodbye!

I want to burn! (I want to burn!)
I want to fly! (I want to fly!)
Let the whole world
start repeating my name!

[Bridge]
He faltered for a moment,
lowered his eyes.
"My soul?"
"Yes, my son," smirked the dark.

"In return, for ten whole years
you will become a star.
They will love you
as if the whole world stood behind your name."

And he remembered his mother,
her quiet breath,
and understood — sometimes happiness
comes when the road is long and far.

He nodded in reply,
saying through his fear:
"Better a life that flares for a moment
than an eternity of embers in others eyes."!!!

[Final Chorus]
I want to burn, I want to shine!
I want a thousand hands
reaching up to the sky again!
I want to burn, I want to fly!
I want to live my life
so I’ll never say goodbye!

I want to burn! (I want to burn!)
I want to fly! (I want to fly!)
Let the whole world
start repeating my name!

I want to burn, I want to shine!
Even if it’s brief,
let it stay within their hearts!
