For years I fought it
Never would accept it
But I never could evade it
Now it's caught up
And I can't outrun it anymore
Can't escape it
It has me in a choke hold
Pulls on my arms
As I try to break away
Slowly giving in
This fight
I can no longer fake to win
And as the lines in my palms
Start to bleed
I turn my face towards the ever eluding Heavens
And scream
Damning this fate that binds me
I long to look away
But I have been hypnotized
The fire in my eyes
Is replaced with submission
Like a lamb to the slaughterhouse
I follow blindly
Trustingly
Walking straight
To where I swore
I would never be lead
Soon I will crane out my neck
To make it easier
For the ax
Then I will be
The way that was always expected of me
Fooled by destiny
And go on in life
Deaf and blind
To my pleading dreams
