Forever and always strung out
never can just go about
clouded by the high
ready to cry
only a matter of time
Until I take that climb.

It took all that I stood for
Slowly eating at the core
getting caught up in a dream
fantasy was the theme
It had driven an eternity between myself and reality.

Can't stop, consumed by the chaos
just standing here at a loss
This chapter is never ending, please rip out the fcking pages already.

Back-and-forth I go, I can't get steady
I can only scream so loud over the lies,
can you see it in my eyes?
Intervene between all this conflict in my mind
to conquer It alone, would be blind.

If I haven't given up now I'll quit soon.
It's out of my reach, as far as the moon
swallow every last doubt
even for the moment I have to believe before I burn out

Choose life not devastation
have no reservations
A rut is not forever
giving up is easy, but I will endeavor.
The pain that comes today
eventually strays away

I stumbled upon a path so surreal
wounds begin to heal
the past doesn't tie me down
my flaws can't make me frown
My mistakes don't define who I am
I've seen enough souls get scammed
many never see through their second chance
I've had a few, got death to dance.

The game isn't over just yet
on my last life, so I'll take the bet
This is the main quest
no longer a pest
the universe is the special guest
don't get me wrong, time will take time, but the journey is all mine.
