Wreaths of mist swirled up into the cold air As I looked at my grave in despair. It was in disrepair and could not be saved. Am I such a depraved knave that I was waived my rights for a better place of interment? I can not get over the convalesce that this will be my permanent address. I played the saint. A saint I'm ain't. No one heard my plaints. But I heard your complaints. Gave you tainted words. No wonder I am where I am. Wreaths of mist swirled up into the cold air as I said my prayers. A foursquare refusal to yield to this grave, to this field. To life and all it's strife. To death and it's last breath. I blocked my ears to the whispers and it did stop the fate spinners. Leaving destiny at my mercy.

I am the Master of my Fate
Wreaths of mist swirled up into the cold air As I looked at my grave in despair. It was in disrepair and could not be saved. Am I such a depraved knave that I was waived my rights for a better place of interment? I can not get over the convalesce that this will be my permanent address. I played the saint. A saint I'm ain't. No one heard my plaints. But I heard your complaints. Gave you tainted words. No wonder I am where I am. Wreaths of mist swirled up into the cold air as I said my prayers. A foursquare refusal to yield to this grave, to this field. To life and all it's strife. To death and it's last breath. I blocked my ears to the whispers and it did stop the fate spinners. Leaving destiny at my mercy.
