Insatiable

These inner eyes reveal what's within Ambition I'm eager to tend Infatuation wins Without a pathway to an end Caught in between I'm blind yet I see The faces I'm leaving behind The tension pulls and winds Waiting for the right design Break the binds to my chamber Deaf to the voices that formed me Everyone is a stranger Their echoes dim and distorting I've seen the others turn their heads and rest their eyes But I'll be more, show them more I've had a taste of what it takes to win the prize I'm reaching for I'm ready for what I'll endure The ends justify more than I realized A small sacrifice Fragments life Consumed in the fire The conquest of mind Any barriers that remain will fall As I build this pathway unabated Compounding understanding, Funneling reason into the final pieces Demanding an image created. I feel it changing the way I talk The lengths to which I've gone can't be overstated The vision taking shape it Begins to reveal its secrets. A facsimile of what I've been working toward. Inhumane. Obsessed. What it takes to reach the end Insane. Possessed. What it takes to reach the end I've seen the others turn their heads and rest their eyes But I'll be more, show them more I've seen the future and now I will bide my time Waiting for them to perform what I've ensured Mastery of fate Moral compass fades Ravenous soul remains Devouring everything I've used so many lives To bring this dream to life I can't stop now The end grows near My plans are sound My acts severe The hour is far too late The pieces fall into place Wanton disdain For all other fates As all my dreams begin to culminate Farewell to living any normal life I've found more Conquered more I got it all but I'll still take another bite To fill my soul To fill my soul Blank skies ahead What else is left for these empty hands? Unequal trade My whole fucking life For one dream to end Nothing has changed What have I gained? The hunger remains Forced to turn my head Forced to turn and face the trail of ash I have lead
