Fear. It controls us.
Greed. It consumes us.
Love. It blinds us.
There is no reprieve.
Pride. It ruins us.
Courage. It kills us.
Dedication, it scars us.
If everything is wrong, then where is the right?
This labyrinth is eternal
This maze unending
There are no worded questions
But the answers are unknown
The straight and fast: the only way out
Forgiveness: what's left behind
Drown yourself in sorrows
Drink the tears away
Balancing on the edge
To feel a small spark of life
There is no leaving and only one way out
With a wounded heart and a smile the equivalent of the sun
Fear. It controls us.
Greed. It consumes us.
Love. It blinds us.
There is no reprieve.
Pride. It ruins us.
Courage. It kills us.
Dedication. It scars us.
Death. It ends us all.
