Vanquished

(album: Inner Signals - 2018)

I wish I was a better man
Always a step behind despite doing the best I can
But I swear I'll learn to love myself
Not with yours or anyone else's fucking help
I know I've lost myself too many times
Made mistakes more often than not
I will overcome these feelings that I have
Vanquish the dark thoughts that drive me mad
Don't stand in my way, no words left to say
I have nothing left to lose and everything to fucking prove
I won't let this be the death of who I am

No one can stop who I will become
I'll leave the past and everything I've fucking done
Say what you will but this won't be the end
I'll move forward, never look back again

Letting go of everything that holds me back
Holds me back
I'm taking steps towards my redemption
Clearing this sick head of all assumptions
You won't see me fucking fail
The world isn't so cut and dry
When alone, the thoughts come rushing in
A future of uncertainty
What will it hold?
I have the heart and I have the will
I must break the mold, break the mold

No one can stop who I will become
I'll leave the past and everything I've fucking done
Say what you will but this won't be the end
I'll move forward, never look back again

Never look back again
Never look back again
No one can stop me, I will move on
I will fucking vanquish
All of the dark in this life of hell
I will leave my mark for better or worse
Watch as I shake this fucking curse
I will vanquish all the dark, all the dark
Watch as I shake this fucking curse
