I struggle to simplify
Reach for a shred of yesterday
When it was all so easy
When the world was so small
Can I stay at the shore?
Gazing over a spakling sea...
Face turned to the breeze...
Only knowing peace...
But the days inch on
Like shadows at sunset
Stretching in the dim light
Pulling me away
Ground crumbles at my feet
Creates the fatal flaw
Over before it started
Not what I meant at all
I set sail from the shore I never thought I'd leave
Turned away from promises I always thought I'd keep
No Reconciliation, gave up thoughts of peace
'Cause what lies onthe other side was never meant for me
A Chasm I'm forced to cross, widening every day
And I can see the other side, even as it fades
Would I want to go back, knowing what I know
Or preserve divinity and just let it go?
And I'm afraid of what I'll find if I loook deeper
Introspection is the process of haunting yourself
Vexed by a world that I can't accept
Or can't accept me
Lost my way in this void
Will I let it defeat me?
