I could wait here, watching the world spin
Slow dolorous motion, take my time
I don't wish to be at the start again
I'll resist Gravity, if need be.

Heave against waves, I'll choke on the sea
Creatures of all lagoons, levitate me
I am not afraid to fly, but to sink
Drowning is such a dulling end

Break me again, desperate Tide
I dare you halt me with your silly trysts
Against the rocks, the crooked grooves
That tear at my flesh, and sever my bones

I don't want to go home, ill take this
These evils are nothing to my anguish
I won't die upon your plate, foe
I'll bite at your soul, engulfing it whole

Treason is the word of kings
Who fear the end of their reign
Fear gets them there in the first place
Powers are none, when you fear the fall

I don't want to go home, I can taste it-
The cusp of a delicious life
To fail is half the strife, swallow the knife
There can't be another chance

Never it easy to reach for the stars
But I'm not reaching, just fighting
The demons at bay that seem toΒ Β 
Keep the Forces from going my way

I don't want to go home, I'm halfway there
A stones throw to the -lay of the land
With me. The breeze lends an ear and suddenly-
A favorable lift of the sails

And so, as I know it.
My fight prevails...
I'll tear every wall
In the wake of my trail
