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 all my 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'll never show you that place
In my heart
