Oh no
Where to go?
I'm at war with the fork in the road
It's too far
To see
The resolution. The picture in front of me.
There's a force
Pulling me
It feels like it's right there
Though I can't see the culprit's face
I still believe
It's preconceived
Nothing more than a question dismissed
A twist of an injured wrist
But I swore I'd never wait for clarity to drift ashore
But now I'm stuck in moments past
And I've put more sand in my hour glass
But I'm always left drowning in pools of candlewax
And on the edge of space
Overcame with the racing urge to fly on my own
Guess soaring's easier said than done
It's no debut
The sky that we all used to look up to
Has been cascading down
Yeah I'm beaten and battered now
(I'm all black and blue)
From scars shredding my view in two
Although I know this book's not born in stone
It's like each chiseled page has it's own set of bones
But I'll arrive surprised
Although I know that I've derived
That ocean currents flow the way they flow
It's no debut
The sky that we all used to look up to
Has been cascading down
Yeah I'm beaten and battered now
(I'm all black and blue)
From scars shredding my view in two
It's like the difference between fire and flame
One's bound to transpire
The other one's calling my name
Almost a shame
To preach love
To practice pain
It's such a fucking shame
It's nothing new
I've taken for granted all that I've been through
But who else would see this through?
It's no debut
The sky that we all used to look up to
Has been cascading down
Yeah I'm beaten and battered now
(I'm all black and blue)
From scars shredding my view in two
