I have come this far
I have made the decisions on this path
I am not perfect
but yet I am as perfect as I will ever be

these road lead no where
they seem to guide me in circles
the trees I pass are ones I've seen
and the bricks i walk upon all seem the same shade

I am not sure where this will lead me
but I know I cant stop here
a broken heart is guiding me
to my one true steer

I wish to stop
I want to quit
but these voices in my head keep at me
a lot of them talking
random murmurs of do it and don'ts

there are those who speak in secret riddles
laughing at my pain
there are those who speak it clear
suicide the only way

I know not what i am
but oh I know so clear
I'm fake
I am a man who hides be hide a child
who helps me through this pain
a child more brave then I

he is my past
and he is true at heart
he hasn't seen the world yet
and so open to whats next
so I hold him up so high
so he wont see beneath these clouds

the world I have created for him
a terrible wreathed place
please forgive me child of mine
this isn't the future you will see.
