Fall

What is this place I've wandered to
So harsh but, somehow comforting
To my home they praise me as a hero
But my ghosts chant pleas for my perdition
How can I seek the path of light
When it's a shame to seek enlightenment
Am I really here to liberate
If my words reach your heart behind my bullet
All these fights I've claimed to win
Gaining nothing and stealing everything
Maybe it's right to find me while I'm low
And bury me beneath the lives I've slain
So many years obedient
Murdering now my volition
Who's truly to blame for my demise
When I'm silent against indoctrination
Silent in re-education
Silent as I pull the trigger on my own mind

And fall
Let me fall
Watch me crumble as I hesitate
To wage war on those who subjugate
And fall
Let me fall
Watch me crawl back, submissively
In fear of my autonomy

How far gone am I to save
Will my past be the bearer of my shame
Will this war I fight be made in vain
If I fall would you carry on the same
How self-righteous I must be
To think that I can win again
Not every battle lost is just
And it's time for my fate to settle in
Burn my flesh and save my soul
I accept the fate that's come for me
This life I've lived has been forsaken
So lead me now to paradise
And show me now what I forgot
Show me now resiliance
Show me light before it's drowned
By the deafening voices in my head
Or bury me, bury me, bury me, bury me
Bury me beneath the choices that I never made

And fall
Let me fall
Watch me crumble as I hesitate
To wage war on those who subjugate
And fall
Let me fall
Watch me crawl back, submissively
In fear of my autonomy
