I walk the narrow path, Scorned by some but it's not for them. The scale was tipped against me, Set up for failure I defied the disease. One less rope around my neck Pre-disposed, I chose my fate. I'm lucky to have had the chance. Two ways out, both absolutes: Complete dependence or complete rejection. I'll take the grief as it comes, I'll feel it for you since you'd rather be numb. I understand the need to escape, Even I find ways to forget the pain Like you, don't wanna face the world. Like you, don't wanna face myself. Like you, I'm afraid. Afraid of what I might find. I'm sickened by life and the tireless routine, But you won't see me down begging for release. I reject their cure, It's temporary and empty. Dull the pain, dull my hatred. I'll keep them both to spite the world. Outnumbered forever.
