Path To Sorrow Lyrics

Sitting here thinking back
On the better days, the days gone past
Before the change, the way things were
When everything was new and pure
When life was free and filled with hope
When everything was explained in full
Those days are near forgotten
The ache of today replaces them
What about tomorrow?
Will I have reached the goal?
Or died forgotten,
With nothing to show?

"Don't get your hopes up son,
There are no guarantees in life but one
That eventually you'll die.
That's a guarantee you cannot escape from."

So I'm sitting here - all alone
It's always worse when no one's home
Why should I continue on,
If death is the only final outcome?
To pursue some mythical success
That some have been fooled to think exists?
Only to meet frustration and die
Still they go on trying and trying and trying
I refuse to live that lie
But then what is there except to die?
I knew I require some change
But every day comes up the same... fruitless

Failure - far too weak
Can't even stand on your own two feet
Spineless - you could never make it in this world of ours
Weakling - they scream at me
Inside your self is the strength you needThe Crucified - Path To Sorrow - http://motolyrics.com/the-crucified/path-to-sorrow-lyrics.html
Hopeless - the strong survive the weak are devoured

This world betrays
This world, it feasts upon me

Failure - so many say
I slow them down I'm in the way
Spineless - got me convinced they've reached security
Weakling - got me pegged
As if alone they've reached success
Hopeless - all I am, the difference between

This world betrays
This world, it feasts upon me

Failure - I feel defeat
But I see now they're hiding something
Spineless - draw my attention far away from hope
Weakling - away from God, away from love
Shake their fists at him above
Hopeless - could it be? He shakes the world the lie they hold

This world betrays
This world, it feasts upon me

World betrays
This world, it feasts upon me

This world betrays
This world, it feasts upon me

My loneliness is evidence of my failure
To stay would mean to pursue some goal
That has eluded me so far
They tell me that I need only myself, that I need no one else
Unfortunately that way of life leaves me nothing but hell!
