Blinded by a need
the need to fulfill a need
to give myself purpose
to follow something other than my self
to let my balance hang in your hands
oblivious to my true ambitions
let me slip right through your fingers
let me fall, fall and spiral
to wards what i used to be
landing right back where i started
forcing me to walk paths
i left long behind me
face demons once slayed
by your sword of lies
once true in my foolish eyes
in my childish mind
beat my head clean on one more painful memory
walk froward as if the past was a mirror
reflecting the now
forget the memories that brought you here
concentrating on what lies ahead
looking for my next sad story to unfold
a new hurt to turn away from
and watch the truth crumble before me
again and again
