When your own life is in your hands

You choose the path to walk upon

And soon the past is taking over

And you alone must find your way

Just like impossible romance

Shackled to the underground

Way too afraid to take a chance

Just too afraid of failure

You wrote the lines that define you long ago

All that you need is inside you to leave it all behind

Into a mind set on fire

We're lost in a maze

Facing the memories

That'll work to conspire

And set us ablaze

Fear is the master

To lead us astray

So push darkness away

When that feeling is closing in

And panic's creeping up on you

Into the river of the broken

Fight or flight, you're paralyzed

To kill that beast inside your mind

And rise above the circumstance

Don't walk away, be someone

Never let your ghost control you

You wrote the lines that define you long ago

All that you need is inside you to leave it all behind

Into a mind set on fire

We're lost in a maze

Facing the memories

That'll work to conspire

And set us ablaze

Fear is the master

To lead us astray

So push darkness away
