Acceptance Bears Comfort

i'm not feeling so good right now
my heart is growing heavy
and my mind is getting hazy
a troubled path, this i have found

i need to find some strength
maybe kneel on the ground
hide my face and make a sound

a heavy load is upon my shoulder
fading dreams and broken hope
my teary eyes, a man broken
a bleak vision, a dying ambition

strength is of character, might is of ability
a victim is to circumstance, guilty of his choices
destiny is beyond control, fate is a ticking time bomb
and when the time comes, when its that time of reckoning
his soul is of more value than his life.

acceptance bears comfort
failure breeds contempt
society creates a machine
adapting to norms, and practices
reality is a fire that burns
lies are a soft blowing wind that soothes

release these haunting thoughts from deep inside me
purpose of life, meaning of life, understanding of the hidden
open my eyes, i want to see.. i want to understand
remove this veil, why this...
life, choices, visions, dreams, passions, survival, regret,
love, influence, happiness, sin......
