The Beaten Path Lyrics

"The Beaten Path"
You should know that it is not my intention
to leave you alone, but if you stay it’s under false pretences
The faces that come, the faces are blackened in me

Look to my past, into your future you will see
Nothing can last, so close to perfect I must leave
The faces that come, the faces are blackened in me

It wasn’t fair, but that was not what I intended
I had a duty of care, and I let down those expectations
The faces that come, the faces are blackened in me

Now I don’t know where I’m going, but I know that I can’t stay
As I pray upon your ashes, won’t someone please save me from my own hands
When’s this rescue gonna come?
Can they stop me from destroying all that I love?

In familiar waters, lusting storm is blowing over
Searching for sanctity
Bound to walk this beaten path

Molded by fate, now cursed that I must plunder
Is it too late to break the spell that I’ve been under?
The faces that come, the faces are blackened in me

Someone please save me
