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?
