Been turned away from acceptance once again
If you get used to it it won't matter
Just remember why you came out here
Get richer and get fatter
If what you want is out of reach
Take that small step forward
Outstretched arms your driving force
Keep you on your guard.
If nothing else you can relate
To those who seek the same
Remaining strong in solitude
Pushing them away
This lust is all that we have left
When the world has moved on
Insatiable hunger

Mortality now has meaning
It's voice is more prevalent
Have we done everything we can
This is all the time we have
To perfect our own meaning
If everyone has a purpose
A plan written in stone
Then life would be worthless
A facad
Free will to follow the path laid out for you
It takes death to bring us together
Life to drift apart
The mind has it's ways to protect itself
A guaranteed heaven
Painless and free
Is this what we spend our time striving toward
If we all end up the same
Free will to follow the path laid out for you
It takes death to bring us together
Life to drift apart
I heard about a life today in which I had little part
And it made us think of our own contribution
Would our lost futures be a tragic waste
Or will our waves be but a ripple

When you style yourself a saviour of mine,
when you chastise me for wasting so much time,
my resentment for you takes over my soul.
Hate corrupts your goal.
You don't understand why I won't listen this time,
act so indignant when punished for your crimes.
Will you ever realise why I let it go?
No, you're too slow.
I can't stand you now, your righteousness cannot dispell
all the things i learned just by living well.
Now are you gonna help me be a better man?
I don't think you can.
Are you gonna turn my water into wine?
Will you say to me that everything will be fine?
When I lack the answers will you help me know?
No, I don't think so.
it seems you get it now, you see there's something wrong
but I don't need you now I've grown so very strong
and in time I'll grow used to being free,
unfettered by your needs.
The time I held you in awe went on too long
now I see that you've been pitiable all along
you always needed to live so vicariously.
So now what will you be?
Will you find another host where you belong
or can you flourish alone now that I'm gone?
I guess it isn't hard to find another just as weak.
It means nothing to me.
You lied and said you'd turn my water into wine,
then went on to say that everything would be fine.
When I lacked the answers you couldn't help me to know,
no, I didn't think so,

I've taken myself for granted all these years
Never felt the need to move on and grow
As I was the first to be where I am
I thought it was all i needed
But more and more I realise I was wrong
All that I know is becoming strange
I'm finding it hard to stay in one place
My thoughts dwell on finding something new
Something I can rely on.
Something I can rely on.
If I can't find this new situation
Then I feel I may begin to lose touch
I managed to follow for so many years
Now I'm being slowly left behind
Sometimes I think I understand them
Decipher some brief moment of clarity
This does not last long
Deaf, dumb, and blind in this social circle
Whether they realise it or not one by one they forget
One by one they all find their place
Exactly what they wanted
If I am to find myself again
I must explore this new possibility
A chance I have been given to expand my world
So now I must move on.
