The Beaten Path

You should know
That it is not my intention
To leave you alone
But if you stay it's under false pretenses

The faces that come
The faces are blackened in me

Look to my past
Into your future you will see
Nothing can last
So close to perfect I must leave

The faces that come
The faces are blackened in me

Now I don't know where I'm going
But I know that I can't stay
As I pray upon your ashes
Won't someone please save me
From my own hands
When's this rescue gonna come?
Can they stop me
From destroying all that I love?

It wasn't fair
But that was not what I intended
I had a duty of care
And I let down those expectations

The faces that come
The faces are blackened in me

In familiar waters
Lusting storm is blowing over
Searching for sanctity
Bound to walk this beaten path

Molded by fate
Now cursed that I must plunder
Is it too late
To break the spell that I've been under?

The faces that come
The faces are blackened in me

Now I don't know where I'm going
But I know that I can't stay
As I pray upon your ashes
Won't someone please save me
From my own hands
When's this rescue gonna come?
Can they stop me
From destroying all that I love?
