Distant (rubicon 2) Lyrics

Distant (rubicon 2) lyrics

The paths that I once tread
have all but gone.
Only embers now
smoulder
where bridges once burned.
I feel alive and yet I fear
what
may happen now.
I know I can't return.

And I hear me say again
'oh
let me not return'.
Damn the illusion of redemption
and the hopes that
held me here.
I will oppose all that would befall me.
With this rage
inside of me
I will defy what I would become.

The solitude and
anger
that do battle inside me
will always guide me to the
answers
that I know I may not see.
They are the bonds that hold me
tighter.
They are the chains that weigh on me.
One day I know they will
be gone.

Can I start again and erase this pain
by casting doubts into
the waters,
asking judgement of the sea.
Though fortune may guide to the
fools
I have no wish to be free
until I am gone.
