lyrics

Finding solace by myself
Pondering lies and regret
Second guessing who I am
Never knowing where I stand

A wave of calm washes over me
Sated tranquility
Years I spent forlorn in pain
I have only myself to blame

No one forced me to act the fool
No one forced me down this sojourn
No one forced me, I played her game
No one forced me, I eschewed the blame

I am the one who raised the stakes
Liable for my own mistakes
I am the one who bet on fate
Lost the gamble to my own hate

A haunting scythe
An Angel of pain
I have only myself to blame
Second guessing who I am
Abide the past, furlongs passed

Slay my fears
Fearsome foray
Claim the Throne
Credence of stone
Sword of conviction
Inherent salvation

Just like the sun will set today
I will not cower, I will not fray
Raise the anchor of sins repressed
Sail towards dreams I suppressed

Win or lose on my own terms
Joy or pain that’s mine to earn
Chronic dread that led me astray
An erstwhile rheostat of fate

No more dwelling I clench my fists
Start a revolution in my brain
Aquinas’ grace, Aristotle’s cave
A path I laid, despondence staved.
