In Parallel

(album: Dichotomy - 2013)

The past has proven, through days gone by,
Those fed by cruel hands
Seem to sharpen their teeth for the bite,
While below the skin lies potential
To choose a greater path.

Realise your actions hold consequence,
And for each misguided step you take,
Someone must bear the weight.

Compromise is never something I'd take lightly.
Cauterise the wounds and let the scars speak for themselves.

Burgeoning, I've come to terms with an imperfect past,
Knowing when our lives diverged my friend,
You chose the wrong path.

Carve these words into stone:
I have waited patiently for this time.
I will leave behind a legacy.
The weak willed will rupture and break.

Compromise is never something I'd take lightly.
Cauterise the wounds and let the scars speak for themselves.

I will be the change that is needed.
I will be the foundation stone.
