On Higher Ground

I’ve been stuck at these walls

I’m caving in

I know this is the end

Door after door

I find them more

What have I done?

So long I’ve tried

My only goal

To reach a higher ground

Every day

I’m awake

I see the light

Carry me on

Emotions leave me astray

So far yet in my reach

Inescapable

Feel the rush

One day I’ll make it

I tell myself to go on

Please lie to yourself again my dear

Promise me, this time will be different

Find what you seek, hope for the best

Yet you’ll find a bitter end

This is how it will be

Without recourse I rushed towards

The end of the endless

My long lived purpose had finally ended

But now, what to do?

My soul is tainted, I feel ashamed

Of what I believed

I’m asleep, awake and one day I’ll die

So this is how it will be

Please lie to yourself again my dear (again my dear)

Promise me, this time will be different (different)

Find what you seek (what you seek), hope for the best (the best)

Yet you’ll find a bitter end

This is how it will be (it will be)

I will go on

I will not lie to myself again

I will seek my fortune

But yet, it has to come
