Bitter Path

I've had enough of all these empty words!

This is not me giving up; this is me letting go

When hope is gone there's nowhere left to run

I'm not running anymore; this is where I stand my ground!

For far too long complacency has been my only friend

And left me with sleepless nights that never seem to end

My God when did I become so heartless?

This can't be what I've been living for!

I swore this fire would never burn out

These days I see it lingering

Where are the hands that I have come to trust?

This means to much to me to let slip through my hands

And even when my strength fails me I will still stand

I will not be pushed aside

Hopelessness and emptiness have no place in me

This may be the death of me, so be it

I swore this fire would never burn out

These days I see it lingering

Where are the hands that I have come to trust?

For so long I wish that this cup could be passed from me

But now I am starting to see this has been what set me free

And even though I may not understand why I walk down this bitter path, full of my regret

I can trust that I am never alone

I am never alone(2x)
