Dark skies and I'm drowning in the flood again
Endless affliction sent to torture my soul
Why does this misery follow me?
Why can't I escape this pain?
Drill another hole through my skull
Release another demon
Take any length to pass the blame
Responsibility - washed my hands clean
Demons in the night?
Self-righteous perception
Defensively, I hide blind in the shadows
Misery cuts deep and yet my innocent hands hold the blood soaked knife
Every action leads to reaction, every choice to a consequence
Foolish decisions yield a price to pay
Pass the blame and yet the debt remains
Wipe the scales from my eyes that I might gain clarity of sight
With a new perspective I take ownership of my actions,
The impending flood now seems a healthy rain
Pain is inevitable but misery is optional
Suffering and pain will fade away as hope lives on and love remains
