Homecoming
Here I stand This road before me leads so far away from all I know But I must persevere to save myself Only time will tell if this will be worth it However there remains no other option Leave my burdens behind me never to return I must defy the odds Carve out a path Leave behind a legacy This cannot be done when I'm bound to this place I'm unsure where this will take me All I know is that I have to get away from here This is not my home Into the unknown I wander Not knowing what's next I keep on pushing Will this be the end For me Will I see the light Or start to decay Against the forces that seem so overwhelming I will not lose direction I will not lose sight I will not give in

I wish that I could just forget These thoughts won't go away The demons in my head They are here to stay You told me that you could help me You said that I could believe in you When I came to you for salvation You proved to me that wasn't true I'm finding it hard to accept this truth This has left me with no direction I've lost control It's time to start trusting in myself again It's time to put my fate into my own hands Everything that I once thought I knew about myself is now a mystery This is the catalyst for my misery Everything that I once told myself is a lie I can't go back to how I was, no matter how hard I try

Every day feels the same Stuck in the captivity of my design I'm beginning to doubt that things will ever be normal again Clinging on to every glimpse of hope I try to save myself But I always knew that this is how it would end Frightened, left alone to die Laying awake at night, afraid of everything Trying to make sense of this prison I am trapped in Let me feel that what you say is true Because you were never there for me when I was there for you I never meant to become this But you made this in me Even I didn't think this would happen I've lost my will to believe I can't see the future but My predictions all came true It was a self fulfilling prophecy

If I could go back, to the start I would have done things so differently Gripped by my own fear, forever At the edge of acceptance, looking down What hits the hardest is having to know That after all that's happened I have failed to grow And that with every step that I take I keep on repeating the same mistakes Feelings of remorse fill my heart Everything I've ever touched has fallen apart And as I leave it all behind The memories will leave my mind There was a time I had everything But I turned my back on it all Now I'm just left with regrets With my back against the wall Irreversible I have nothing left I can't change a thing There's no remedy What have I let myself become I want nothing more than for this to end

Looking back at those years with shame With nobody but myself to blame Trying to avoid these images in my head My sanity hanging by a thread Only presence can undo the past in you Redirect the thoughts and become something new Don't forget to live for now, what holds you back is an illusion We manufacture our own reality, make the right choice and end the delusion I could feel so much regret But this story isn't over yet Nobody knows what the future holds But it's not what the past has told Realize That the power lies within End the misery End the suffering This moment is all that remains Relinquish this needless disdain

I promise you will find the fortitude To face this adversity with a brave face You will see that you can save yourself When you find yourself in that woeful place
