Reality has come tumbling down on me like darkness
The pressure crushes my heart and the breathe is taken from me
Flooding my mind with images that haunt me
There are no options or different roads to take now
I must follow the path left to me until its end
I see shadows along the road that reach for my very soul
Part of me yearns to let them finish the journey here
But as dark as my soul may seem it doesn’t belong to me
I have no right to give it up
So with a deep breath I raise my head and veer off the road
I will make my own path now |
