It’s all the same
It all the same
I tell myself over and over
A different night, a different light
Yet I look in the mirror sober
But who’s to blame
Who’s to blame

Your wish for me
I wish to be

Your undeniable wit
I hope to fit

Your blinding glow
I yearn to know

Your reasons in my mind
I tried to find

Your heart never did mend
I failed you in the end

I’ve seen this road before
Was it in a dream?
The familiarity of the leaves crunching at their core
For what could it mean?

My feet sink in each step
A robin can be heard in the distance
For even he knows I’m a wreck
As I contemplate life’s existence

Yet the road leads to another
So, I take a break from it all
And as night falls, she’s found a new lover
But here I cling to my phone, waiting on a call

As day rises, I continue on
Walking slowly, feeling tired and sore
When a thought comes to mind, with the suns dawn
I’ve seen this road before

A few years ago, he was just a kid
Now a man, he comes back to fight
The demons and ghouls he came to rid
To help the town see light

He died the second he crossed
The town went under and away
The remains grew covered in moss
His wife received word and had nothing to say

His family continued to live
Although he was in their thoughts everyday
They lived modest, thankful for what he had left to give
Often visits were made to the site of decay

His kid learned the lessons he didn’t
A leader by birth, he brought the town together
He raised twice the army his father sought
They learned to adapt and change such as the weather

A few years ago, he was just a kid
Now a man, he came back to fight
The demons and ghouls he came to rid
To ensure the town sees the light
