Dark skies and I’m drowning in the flood again.
|
Endless affliction sent to torture my soul.
|
Why does this misery follow me?
|
Why can’t I escape this pain?
|
Drill another hole through my skull.
|
Release another demon.
|
Take any length to pass the blame.
|
Responsibility - washed my hands clean.
|
Demons in the night?
|
Self-righteous perception.
|
Defensively, I hide blind in the shadows.
|
Misery cuts deep and yet my innocent hands hold the blood soaked knife.
|
Every action leads to reaction, every choice to a consequence.
|
Foolish decisions yield a price to pay.
|
Pass the blame and yet the debt remains.
|
Wipe the scales from my eyes that I might gain clarity of sight.
|
With a new perspective I take ownership of my actions,
|
the impending flood now seems a healthy rain.
|
Pain is inevitable but misery is optional.
|
Suffering and pain will fade away as hope lives on and love remains.
