To be who I am to be free
To fight for who I have been told I am within is all I can do
I am lost to memories of past of present and of future
Who I am is shrouded in darkness of deep hidden mystery
The world needs men who will scarifice their all to become more than living and breathing
Tears fall from eyes that have lost the ability to show feeling
I am a broken man with the weight of a life I left behind me haunting my every move
A dance upon broken ground and beneath darkened skies awaits the few who are here
We are unknown withdrawn from the world around us to protect those who will never see
That we are but ghosts left to remember and to forget
There is nothing no one who can pull me back from this world
For it is all I have to save me from what I have run from so long
I watch blood pour and the people I have known leave me forever
This cycle of life I am in is a short and deadly one
I step forward once only to find myself pulled back twice
I am but a man of flesh and blood and sinew
No more no less
Yet I fight to become more to be stronger than those who would destroy me
A modern day warrior searching for redemption for understanding for acceptance
Do I find it here within my soul or within the eyes of those I am told I must trust
