It starts with conversation And yet we make the occasion, a feeling made so discrete I'm sick of stepping through fields of broken glass The lesions of frailty, they only drive us farther apart Disconnected and it's just the beginning To know that pressure builds when We're the victims of self-doubt I can't seem to break down the barricade I'll stay to maintain what's left of this Don't want to burn down these bridges tonight There might be something here, something for both of us I'll run the risk of failing again The darkness has risen and taken my vision To places I can't describe Its presence is grating and has left me so empty inside Ascension seems stagnant but the will has grown inside The shell will break down and rewrite your diatribe You've used to define me I can just tell from the reaction you don't like my Point of view But its mine and I stand by, what is on my mind Couldn't care if you smite my Judgement I smile in prize fight So far I've been living to please, Decrease tension Now I'm just thinking of me I wanna venture Step to the deep end forever Sail ships of relations into great weather I'm at a point in my life where the words are artillery Given the right knowledge ill demolish almost anything Simmer down You bitter clown I see that frown And body language that matches Unlatch your heart and just relax it The walls that keep me in is a maze of obscurity, this place is At your command and it's lacking an exit With every step, there is a sense of security I know that patience aids, one day I'll break your gaze It is my only desire to bring you down to ground, away from being a stranger
