Descent

All the questions i have asked myself / and all the answers i have searched for / become harder to reach / they always seem further than before /
it seems that effort is my / enemy when all i work / for seems to slip away / but i can't just sit back and watch / watch while life passes me by /
a drop in the bucket / is what my efforts seem to be / i wish this chain of failure / would just set me free / i'm so scared but there's nowhere /
to run and hide / i won't give up i won't give in / this time it's a matter of pride / there's a place that i know / somewhere i go to find /
shelter from this world but / i will never show you that place / in my heart!.
