Taste of Doubt

Misty sunrise
Hazy glow in the winter time
I'm falling deeper down
Light against the dark
Silhouettes cast onto me
And I can't see the light

Too much to handle
The pain that was dealt
I felt it resonate in my bones
A feeling deep inside
But I fought through it all
A riot building up, raising
Ground, earthquakes all around
Shaking, throwing stones

A fire burning deep within me
My soul set alight
Set amongst the night sky
Where it shines

The misty eyed people
Staring as they watch
A charted course to find ourselves
When we were once apart
Hearts full of pride and joy
Torn down to nothing now
But the bitter taste of sadness
The bitter taste of doubt

Windy sunset
Blowing past the broken trees
The leaves fall at our feet
You once called for me
A cry for help when you were lost
But I never found the way

Too much to ask for
Never found my way out
Stuck in a maze
Confusion settles in
Fell from a great height
A fall from grace, is what you'd say
But you fell too, into the dark

Discovering the stories untold
The devil on my shoulder whispering to me
As it unfolds

A mystery forgotten
The story of our lives
A time when we could not forget
The years came passing by
Hearts full of pride and joy
Torn down to nothing now
But the bitter taste of sadness
The bitter taste of doubt

The bitter taste of doubt
Infecting and controlling me
Bringing me down to my knees
The venom that you spoke

Poisoning my thoughts
Lost my sense of self
Poisoning my peaceful mind
I needed someone else
Hearts full of pride and joy
Torn down to nothing now
But the bitter taste of sadness
The bitter taste of doubt

The misty eyed people
Finally walked away
People who went through it all
Who were strong enough to stay
Once full of pride and joy
Building back up to it now
With the bitter taste of sadness
The bitter taste of doubt
