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? 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? 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 If I didn't throw it away? Or will I struggle on To find a better way for myself?
