You never let me to be
It is always hard to see
I search for truth in the lies
It will come as a surprise
But no one here seems to care
For all the things that I dare

I walk in the crimson snow
Where I'm going no one knows
I can't see as usual
The path ahead to unfold
Move along and hope one day
I'll get there and there I'll stay
I might be weak but could get strong
Just for now I'll trudge along
But no one seems to really care
Whether or not I will make my way there

As I venture in this day
It will never go away
It's just too hard to comprehend
The things I've done -- a deadly sin
I hope to sever these lies
It just don't seem to compromise
To compromise
