My Escape

I see the world through eyes of desperation

Never knew how long I'd fall

But I fell through years and years of darkness

Still I cannot seem to hit the ground

I let my guard down and you caught me by surprise

Nothing is ever carved in stone

Will I spend my life wondering

What could have been (if I didn't throw it away?)

Or will I struggle on

And find a better path for myself? (For myself)

I've built my life upon decades of experience

But what I built for years took days for you to raze

In the end I learned that one single snowflake

Can set an avalanche in motion

Some questions are dangerous

The truth is not an option

This is the illusion I pulled down over your eyes

But I let my guard down and you caught me by surprise

Nothing is ever carved in stone

Will I spend my life wondering

What could have been (if I didn't throw it away?)

Or will I struggle on

And find a better path for myself? (For myself)

I secure my every step

Slowly I advance away from you

How can I forgive you

When it wasn't your fault

(Will I spend my life wondering)

(What could have been?)

Will I spend my life wondering

What could have been (if I didn't throw it away?)

Or will I struggle on

And find a better path for myself? (For myself)

Will I spend my life wondering

What could have been (if I didn't throw it away?)

Or will I struggle on

And find a better path for myself?
