Ravine of Reverie

I'm at the gate
With fear and doubt
The choice I make
Will shape my route

It's hard to deal
With the unknown
I wish I could
Not face this now

If I make this move
Will I crash and fail?
And if I run away
What price will I pay?

I'm drained and weak
By this silent war
The hardest strife
Is to find the way in life

I run to the ravine
And hide from the world
My thoughts take over
I can't keep my ground

The air feels dense
The mood is grim
The doubt and pain
Won't reach us here

A broken soul
Haunted by consequence
Not everyone can face
The world with confidence

I'd rather stay here
In a silent stillness
I control nothing

How, in a world so vast
Could my poor choice
Ever bear meaning at last?

The ravine is so deep
Carved into stone
My dreams wander as the mist grows

It's a soft suffering
No peace: A numbing ecstasy

An echo from the past still cries
Hold to the truth that never dies
There's so much power in your heart
Remember the lessons from the guide

Life demands your fire to grow
Even crawling on the ground
Keep chasing the tunnel's distant glow
Don't trust the demons down below

A broken soul
Haunted by consequence
Not everyone can face
The world with confidence

I can no longer stay here
The spell comes to an end
The light will guide me

Out there in the vastness
I'll gather what's left of me
And walk toward the dawn
