So it Goes

LETRA

So it Goes

This is a call
To notice that which has gone unnoticed
That all of us are walking wounded
Bearing hidden scars and subtle bruises
The casualties of a war inside our hearts

We submit ourselves to abstract forces
Ruled by the concept that living is surviving

We are suffocating on our own tangled aspirations

Mired down by the restraints forced on us
The fear and doubt that serves to crush

We can no longer take satisfaction in our suffering

Now is the time to arm ourselves with the knowledge
That we can achieve a state of independence
One of personal anarchy

We can end this war

See past the darkened veil pulled over our eyes
We will make the world at large
Recognize our cries

I will dedicate myself to reclaiming the disputed landscape of my soul

I will repel each incursion visited upon my spirit
Cast light upon the insidious decay of volition

Surely, I do protest
Let this be a message
That here I stand
