All of the miles before us unfold Uncertainly leading to stories yet told The pleasures and pains, the joys and the woes Retreating and greeting wherever we go The sun and the moon dancing by overhead While we’re sleeplessly dreaming or resting our heads Bringing light to the dark, bringing darkness to light Sometimes chilling the day, sometimes warming the night As we see what we feel, and we feel what we see As we loathe what we have, and we want what can’t be As we right ‘til we’re wrong, and we wrong ‘til we’re right As we run from the battle, and rage in the fight There’s not one of us perfect; not one of us made To make all the right choices from birth to the grave Sometimes we will conquer, and sometimes we’ll fall Sometimes we’ll have faith, and sometimes we’ll lose all But to lose is to win if we’ll learn from the past Instead of retreating from shadows we’ve cast Rising up from the ashes and shedding our skins Though it feels like the end, it is where we begin Finding strength in our weakness and knowledge in pain As we unleash our courage, and fear we restrain For the future’s unwritten…a past yet to be And the only thing certain is uncertainty
