I feel myself fading away.
Losing touch with myself and the earth.
All the sparks dehydrated and malnourished within my soul.
I stopped asking myself where my place is in society years ago.
It's all corrupted anyway.
Nobody knows how to think for themselves.
They're too busy worrying about celebrity relationships.
Minds tainted with dreams of living in someone else's shoes.
Lost in an endless simulation until we're six feet deep.
I need to break free and make my own road.
It won't be perfect, but it'll be mine.
Fuck what everyone else thinks.
See, people fear what they don't understand.
Some may find it offensive and retaliate with disgust and jealousy.
The sparks begin to illuminate and flicker within my soul.
Waking me from my eternal slumber.
Full of confidence and wisdom I finally have a new look on life.
I've come to terms with myself and how things are on this ruthless rock.
I'm fine without having a purpose.
I'll do what keeps a smile on my face.
No more second guessing myself.
No more apologies.
I'll do what I think is right.
Only letting those into my mysterious life who are worthy of my time.
Whoever isn't down to ride can get cut off.
No more puzzles.
Turning the page, I vow to never look back.
Its time I wake up and live for myself.
