You're testing my patience, you're testing my will,
You know I've fought hard, and I shall still  

I didn't question your motives, until I had no choice,
Why do you want to me to lose my faith, why don't you hear my voice?  

It's never been an equal world, there are ups and downs for all,
Had a share of highs, but lately into nothingness, it's a free fall  

Existence as a tree, is not what you could have possibly planned for me,
Then why am I a listless vacuum, with nothing pouring in or out of me  

If this is as good as it's gonna get, then take it away at once,
Keep those souls I love happy, And to see you, let me have a chance

I'm looking for hope, for a new direction,
I'm looking for a sign, a glimpse of salvation

I've wandered too long, but not too far, Knocked on all doors, except the ones ajar

Pride was an alien concept, once I knew what I am,
A void that has nothing to claim,  a life that's been a sham

I sensed the desire leave, the fire in the shadow fade away,
Living in the hopes of tomorrow, before I knew it, it was today

I'm losing faith, as I beg everyone to hold on,
I'm inching towards insanity, as my world moves on

The child is captive, somewhere in the corners of me,
I want it to be my captor instead, I want it to set me free
