lyrics

The world around me is wearing thin.
Where will I turn when it all caves in?
I'll reject this place of helplessness.
I'll reject this plague of helplessness
It seems so easy to just let go.
But I'll take the road the no one knows.

Again, I find myself praying to something I can't believe in.
I now see the truth was in front of me for all these years.

I will never adhere to faith fueled by so much fear.
Am I someone I can save?

Can I find my own way through the darkest depths of tragedy?
Can I deliver myself when I'm surrounded by hatred?
A hate that bound me my whole life.
My whole life, I have been kept in the dark.

I'm only looking for an answer.
I'm only looking for myself.

The world around me has changed,
and I can no longer look at it the same,
No longer accept this fate.
It seems so easy to just follow.
Can I find the road that no one knows?


When I have no where left to turn,
I pray to a god that knows I don't believe.

I've learned that no one will carry me against the waves and currents.
I can either stop and sink, or I can learn how to swim.

Alone I'll face these demons dwelling inside of me.
Am I someone I can save?

I'll find my own way home.
The only light that guides me is my own.
I may never find the answers,
but at least I found myself.

I know the masses won't approve but this is who I am.
and I know of right and wrong and all struggles come to their end.

I'll find my own way,
I'll leave my mark.
I'll find my own grace

I will not surrender who I am.
