Clandestine

I knew I was leaving in the night and wolves cried loudly
Your status anxiety made my seed your bounty for too long
Web spun, numbed mind
The only way to justify your vice
I'm not yours anymore
Oh, and I never was

I walked alone into a free man's strange land
Strength left, I'll rise
I fight for the chained man
I hear the dogs
I see torches
I hear shouting
I keep going

I could have saved a thousand more
If only they knew they were slaves
Comfortable, lashed, and torn
Cause it came right on time
I can't afford to grow half hearted in this enclave
Whispers to just lay low
I know the stakes are too high
Too high

I've heard one way to find the depth of a rushing river
Jump in with all your might and hope you can swim
I hope you swim
