Reckoning Lyrics by Teremont

I Will Not Live in Void

0

I know it's self-destructive
And I should put the effort in
I know it's all reductive
And I'm losing all my friends
I can't help feeling helpless
Like I'm falling in the dark
I keep trying to be selfless
When it's me that's broke apart
And I know I should know better
Than to lock myself away
Than to keep it between letters
In self-hating masquerades
I reckon my times up
I reckon that's not right
The path is dim and fading
And soon there'll be no light
It's like I'm my own enemy
Like I don't give myself the chance
Like I don't see where I'm still going
Like I never care to get a glance
But I guess that that's the risk I took
When I chose to see today
To lock myself in paradigms
To be locked in my old ways
This crossroads at this heart of mine
It keeps it all away
It's keeping me far from moving on
From knowing it's okay
Hold a candle to my grave
Say a prayer and hold my wake
When there's nothing left to save
Pull me up and out the waves
To arrest the spell of sorrow
And to bring the flame once more
To ensure a new tomorrow
My friends, raise me once more
God, who would I be now
Who would I be if left alone
God, would I be brought down
And buried, now, flesh skin, and bone
I will not live in void
Nor will I die without reprise
I'll stick around to find out
I'll make some noise, I'll find my dream
I reckon my times up
I reckon that's not right
The path is bright and burning
So bring me to the light
It's like I'm my own enemy
But I'll give myself the chance
I'll try to see the future
I'll give life its last dance
I'll look for what I lost back then
I'll see what I can do
I'll get out now while I'm ahead
And find my way to you
And one day maybe I'll see that this place isn't half bad
