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 groundI let my guard down
And you caught me by surprise
Nothing is ever carved in stoneWill 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 motionSome questions are dangerous, the truth is not an option
This is the illusion I pulled down over your eyes
But I left my guard down and you caught me by surprise
Nothing is ever carved in stoneWill 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 faultWill 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?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?
