Destiny
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Just hope for a future and prevail this fight
I have the strength to carry on
But how long must I feel this way?
I've grown so bitter about you
It was something you always knew
Can we forget these words?
Or is it too late?
The past is dead, but I won't bury you
From now on my life won't ever be the same
Haunted by visions, this can't be the end of me, no not tonight
I don't want to waste away
These nightmares always get the best of me
Don't give up on me, cause' all I need
Is your voice to salvage all hope I have
This is who I am now, for better or for worse
This is my burden and I can't turn back the clocks
You won't get the best of me
This is who I am now, for better or for worse
This is my burden and I can't turn back the clocks
You won't get the best of me
This is my destiny!
This is my destiny
I can't hold back now
This is my salvation
I don't want to waste away
These nightmares always get the best of me
Don't give up on me, cause' all I need
Is your voice to salvage all hope I have
All hope I have
I don't want to waste away
These nightmares always get the best of me
Don't give up on me, cause' all I need
Is your voice to salvage all hope I have
All hope I have
Carry me away from here
I can't hold back
Can't hold back
This is a new beginning
The past is fucking dead
I won't ever go back
I can't ever go back!
