Lyrics

The paths that I once tread
Have all but gone
Only embers now smoulder
Where bridges once burned
I feel alive and yet I fear
What may happen now
I know I can't return

And I hear me say again
'Oh let me not return'
Damn the illusion of redemption
And the hopes that held me here
I will oppose all that would befall me
With this rage inside of me
I will defy what I would become

The solitude and anger
That do battle inside me
Will always guide me to the answers
That I know I may not see
They are the bonds that hold me tighter
They are the chains that weigh on me
One day I know they will be gone

Can I start again and erase this pain
By casting doubts into the waters
Asking judgement of the sea
Though fortune may guide to the fools
I have no wish to be free
Until I am gone
