Inner Turmoil

[Intro] Damn Another pointless song about someone who doesn’t give a shit about me So I'm looking through my memories Falling into jealousy How can I miss you You’re really just my enemy Breaking apart but I gotta hold my legacy And I don’t wanna die young I know that’s not my destiny [Verse 1] Storms and trials wear my palm lines thin Proud spirit trapped in mortal din Vain judgements of this world spin To mark my right and sin I’ve roamed hills as suns rise and dim Bound tight by fate’s unbreakable rim Fire still rages deep within Yet I must bow to him [Pre-Chorus] I once dared To ask the heavens high Why take away All freedom I hold nigh Scarred all over, still I won’t subside Obsession stitched into my soul’s tide (Ooh-ooh-ooh) Watch me dodge every memory before it drags me low! [Chorus A] This wild self To whom shall I confide This heart’s grief To whom may I confide Fate lays countless trials to bide Demanding my true self cast aside [Pre-Chorus] I once dared To ask the heavens high Why take away All freedom I hold nigh Scarred all over, still I won’t subside Obsession stitched into my soul’s tide (Ooh-ooh-ooh) Watch me dodge every memory before it drags me low! [Chorus A] This wild self To whom shall I confide This heart’s grief To whom may I confide Fate lays countless trials to bide Demanding my true self cast aside [Chorus B] This rough voyage Who shall justify This vain dream Who shall scrutinize Though my burning blood still survives Can’t escape fate’s engraved lines [Verse 2] Notifications ping while I’m filling my cup Old ghosts resurface no one knows I’m stuck with They keep saying ease up, take a softer route But I hide the ache where my old memories sprout Chaos spinning fast on a crowded weekday night Smile stuck on my face while I fight the inner tide [Verse 2 Continued] Lonely lamp lights my lonely night I’ve seen truth and falsehood in plain sight Promises turn to smoke and light Vanish without a sign To break the cage I still am tied To sever longing, still it clings to side Struggles and patience I abide Lost in the mortal tide To break the cage I still am tied To sever longing, still it clings to side Struggles and patience I abide Lost in the mortal tide [Pre-Chorus] I once dared To ask the heavens high Why take away All freedom I hold nigh Scarred all over, still I won’t subside Obsession stitched into my soul’s tide (Ooh-ooh-ooh) Watch me dodge every memory before it drags me low! [Chorus A] This wild self To whom shall I confide This heart’s grief To whom may I confide Fate lays countless trials to bide Demanding my true self cast aside [Chorus B] This rough voyage Who shall justify This vain dream Who shall scrutinize Though my burning blood still survives Can’t escape fate’s engraved lines [Chorus B] This rough voyage Who shall justify This vain dream Who shall scrutinize Though my burning blood still survives Can’t escape fate’s engraved lines [Bridge] Who bids me dull my sharpened blade Who wants my boldest dreams to fade Shades of black and white parade What is truth, what is charade Though my flesh is bruised and frayed My authentic heart won’t fade Yet the world’s ways shift and sway What good is courage on display [Bridge Extended] Ya I’m searching for my destiny Tripping for a better me I don’t wanna break your heart So you better leave It’s not that I don’t love you I’m just losing myself mentally I’m scared to open up I’m scared to really feel Afraid of my own mind I don’t know if I will heal I guess I am my enemy [Final Chorus A] This wild self To whom shall I confide This wild self To whom shall I confide This heart’s grief To whom may I confide Fate lays countless trials to bide Demanding my true self cast aside [Chorus B] This rough voyage Who shall justify This vain dream Who shall scrutinize Though my burning blood still survives Can’t escape fate’s engraved lines Pride still remains Defy fate’s chains Resentment strains Blend into dust’s domain (Whispered) What a hollow show.
