Serenity of solitude
The bets I’ve made
My fortunes few
My fires lost I may never see the light of day
Feel the pain flow through my veins
A mental beast that can’t be tamed
Just look through my eyes
You’d be terrified

Can’t escape
Can’t run away
My forward steps are taking me the other way

If something is gonna help me
It’s taking to damn long
It’s myself against me
That’s why I'm always wrong

It’s clear to me
I’ve lost all sanity

Can’t escape
Can’t run away
My forward steps are taking me the other way
Time changes nothing
But the fact remains
My forward steps are taking me the other way

Been locked away inside a cage
The struggles pointing straight to rage
Beware the burdens you bear
Haunting you everywhere
Crept inside a sign of hope
My thoughts have tied a fraying rope
Chained down here to stay
Left here to stay alone

Can’t escape
Can’t run away
My forward steps are taking me the other way
Time changes nothing
But the fact remains
My forward steps are taking me the other way

I'm not looking for answers
Cause I'm the one who drove me away
And if I'm the kind who wanders
Well maybe I’ll wander away
