Circumstance-severed ties
Shine like fugazi
Labor under lies
Instead of being, set free
Smothered in shadow
Beneath that Giving Tree
Struggling to let go
The aftermath of deceit
Falling for the untrue
Failing my destiny
Calling out for proof
Smoke-signaling my sanity

Circumstance-severed ties
Shine like fugazi
Labor under lies
Instead of being, set free
Smothered in shadow
Beneath that Giving Tree
Struggling to let go
The aftermath of deceit
Falling for the untrue
Failing my destiny
Calling out for proof
Smoke-signaling my sanity
