Your plight becomes your calling once more as you retreat to daunting servitude
unbeknownst unto your own soul, the mired fog which blinded your path prior reaches out to you
Claws sinking, you succumb to lies and deceit as if it were your only surmise
I know better, but I am not the one to call your place in line amongst the unwavering compassion I own for you
You make your choice based on a haze of comprehension, no eyes could see nor heart could feel; indecision stifled your beckoning before, and yet you return to the same darkness even you called foul for yourself
You knew where harm reached out to you; intention set, you saw the crimes which took your heart for granted; you spoke to me, with me, of all the things you sought but were met with insalubrious dissonance.. And yet..
My heart sinks, my chest burns, my mind wreaks havoc on itself just to know: why?
I am for you, unconditionally; you betray not my heart, but merely your own
Until the day comes you see true unto yourself, I settle now to be in your shadow..

Until the day comes you see true unto yourself, I settle now to be in your shadow..
One step forward, two steps back
