I get a different reading from this song. 'When a person turns to wrong, is it a want to be, belong?' I think resumes the specifics of what the song serves to speak about. Not everyone finds fulfillment in the same mode of being, the song is exploring the 'darker side' of the psyche. Upon realizing the importance of serving all that is good, what then after makes a person turn to wrong? 'Is it a want to be', is highly ambiguous: it might mean to say is it a natural inclination to want to be otherwise, to not want to subsume some accepted or aspired to mode of being; 'belong' has it that a person's turning to being outwardly wrong is another way of fashioning a persona and through that persona the person gains a sense of belong as that thing which is naturally deviate from the more regular drive to be good. This 'fighter spirit' does duty for what I have called being good. This song seems to be from the point of view of someone who has chosen good encountering another who has chosen a different path, who does not display the same fighter's spirit, and is reflecting back on when and how it was that they themselves came to deciding to being a certain way. The reflection leads this guy to decide that he who has chosen the 'wrong road' is not bad per se, that there is a large ambiguous grey zone of possible reasons, drives, motives, sentimentalities... that could have caused this other to choose the wrong road. The song, in one fugue, speaks of acceptance, but in the other, 'my soul will fly and I will live forever', to me, it seems that the right road the speaker has chosen is hoped to lead them to or maintain for them their immortality. So, again this grey zone, the righteous path is neither wholly selfless. What is then being called to choose the wrong road, let's imagine a road of decay, indecency, callousness, surliness, might have its roots in apprehension, delicacy, preference or straight out fear. In certain senses the wrong road is in some cases not a deliberate choice, but a suspension of one, while the man reflecting realizes that he at one point or other decided to be how he is.
