Lyrics

[00:43.70] This is a crisis I knew had to come,
[00:47.01] Destroying the balance I'd kept.
[00:50.01]
[00:50.76] Doubting, unsettling and turning around,
[00:54.53] Wondering what will come next.
[00:57.68]
[00:58.28] Is this the role that you wanted to live?
[01:02.00] I was foolish to ask for so much.
[01:05.57] Without the protection and infancy's guard,
[01:09.67] It all falls apart at first touch.
[01:12.74]
[01:36.21] Watching the reel as it comes to a close,
[01:39.58] Brutally taking its time,
[01:43.24] People who change for no reason at all,
[01:47.02] It's happening all of the time.
[01:50.79] Can I go on with this train of events?
[01:54.56] Disturbing and purging my mind,
[01:58.32] Back out of my duties, when all's said and done,
[02:01.86] I know that I'll lose every time.
[02:06.47]
[02:50.90] Moving along in our God given ways,
[02:54.27] Safety is sat by the fire,
[02:58.03] Sanctuary from these feverish smiles,
[03:01.23]
[03:01.81] Left with a mark on the door,
[03:05.29] Is this the gift that I wanted to give?
[03:09.22] Forgive and forget's what they teach,
[03:12.90] Or pass through the deserts and wastelands once more,
[03:15.93]
[03:16.57] And watch as they drop by the beach.
[03:20.93]
[03:57.79] This is the crisis I knew had to come,
[04:01.06] Destroying the balance I'd kept,
[04:04.86] Turning around to the next set of lives,
[04:08.51] Wondering what will come next.
