My Escape

I see the world through eyes of desperation
\r\nNever knew how long I'd fall
\r\nBut I fell through years and years of darkness
\r\nStill I cannot seem to hit the ground
\r\n
\r\nI let my guard down and you caught me by surprise
\r\nNothing is ever carved in stone
\r\n
\r\nWill I spend my life wondering
\r\nWhat could have been
\r\nIf I didn't throw it away
\r\nOr will I struggle on
\r\nAnd find a better path for myself
\r\n
\r\nI've built my life upon decades of experience
\r\nBut what I built for years took days for you to raze
\r\nIn the end I learned that one single snowflake
\r\nCan set an avalanche in motion
\r\n
\r\nSome questions are dangerous, the truth is not an option
\r\nThis is the illusion I pulled down over your eyes
\r\nBut I left my guard down and you caught me by surprise
\r\nNothing is ever carved in stone
\r\n
\r\nWill I spend my life wondering
\r\nWhat could have been
\r\nIf I didn't throw it away
\r\nOr will I struggle on
\r\nAnd find a better path for myself
\r\n
\r\nI secure my every step, slowly I advance away from you
\r\nHow can I forgive you when it wasn't your fault
\r\n
\r\nWill I spend my life wondering
\r\nWhat could have been
\r\nIf I didn't throw it away
\r\nOr will I struggle on
\r\nAnd find a better path for myself[2x]
