Sobriety

I carry my darkness like a briefcase into my life paperweights ever linger on my page that never turns normal that's what they all say expected like that's what it takes when the smoldering pyre is waiting to be relit beckoning like a beacon in the dark that is my placid mind a place without hope copeless inside yearning to remove my book's frail bindings scattering in the air laid bare to the whims of the winds of my existence dependent myself or my crutch who wins this tug-of-war of my repentance? my sins lived on a castle built in the craters on my arms a mote made atop my liver a bridge built across my mind the chains wrapped around my heart the throne upon my soul now empty its ghosts consuming my thoughts who wants this?? productive for what purpose? I want this. to not worry anyone I want this to suceed I want this to be me [Verse 2] I'm haunted by the darkness, the shadows I've created In the castle of my sins my secrets have been gated The walls echo regret nightmares I can't escape But I'll challenge my demons rewrite my own fate [Chorus] In the castle of my sins, where the ghosts reside I'll break free from these chains, no longer will I hide I'll rise above the shadows, let my spirit take flight No more haunted by the past, I'll conquer the darkest night [Verse] I gotta take it Take it (Take it all) Forsaken (Forsaken) Let them fall [Verse 2] I'm on a Mission to the sky (to the sky) No matter how Hard I gotta try No more hesitation (hesitation) Gotta break the chains Leaving all my troubles in the rain [Chorus] Take it (Take it) Take it all away Forsaken (Forsaken) I'm gonna find my way Leaving all my demons (demons) in between me and sobriety me and sobriety [verse] t-t-t-take it (just take me) forsaken (forsake me) I'll conquer all my demons I'll leave them in the past (the past) [verse] t-t-t-take it (just take me) forsaken (forsake me) I'll conquer all my demons I'll leave them in the past (the past) practiced collective suffering yearning for emptiness craving sweet nothings dulled inference doled into this feeling of calmness serenity darkness revoked learning to love myself again [verse] t-t-t-take it (just take me) forsaken (forsake me) I'll conquer all my demons I'll leave them in the past (the past) practiced collective suffering yearning for emptiness craving sweet nothings dulled inference doled into this feeling of calmness serenity darkness revoked learning to love myself again [outro] [verse] t-t-t-take it (just take me) forsaken (forsake me) I'll conquer all my demons I'll leave them in the past (the past) practiced collective suffering yearning for emptiness craving sweet nothings dulled inference doled into this feeling of calmness serenity darkness revoked learning to love myself again [outro]
