Destiny Deal Me In

Friend
It's alright now
Even so
Your head
Is in the clouds
But hangs so low

You bury your despair
And clearly I'm unaware

You turn to me
And you say
'I'd rather be
Worn away
And I wish that wasn't true

The lighter pieces
Of my brain
Just never seem
To get their way
And I may just split In two'

So
I'll take your life
And hold it tight
I'll show
Let me show you what it's like
Below the ice

Holding my breath
To stay afloat
Swinging my head
To and fro
To just be rid of
What I hoped
That death would let me go

And when we die
I believe
We meet the finest
We could be
The best person we could've been

And I'm horrified
That when we meet
I won't recognize
The man I see
So destiny deal me in

Fate is a cruel game and I won't let it win

There's ones
I chased around
I regret
And some
Erased the ground
That I step

No amount of
Getting high on
Old hellos and
New goodbyes
That can cut out
What resides
And so you start to cry

So help me god
If the graves
Where I belong
There's no way
I'm making it out alive

Yet it's drawing
Me awake
Just like the dawn
As it breaks
And the morning has arrived

Fate is a cruel game, and we just can't let it win
