Edifier Lyrics

"Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed"

There are countless ways to enrage
To give in to despair
There are endless ways to forsake
And have a curse

There are myriad forms to cherish life
Veiled and concealed
Deep down beneath your despair
Yearning to breathe

In the end you have to decide
What to think and to feel
In the end you have to decide
To bear a grudge
Or shine a light

The fragility of life Is crushing you
Mortality and finitude
Are changing you

There are countless ways to loathe
To revel in bitterness
There are countless ways to lose heart
And indulge in grief

There are myriad forms to cherish life
Veiled and concealed
Deep down beneath your despair
Yearning to breathe

In the end you have to decide
What to think and to feel
In the end you have to decide
To bear a grudge
Or shine a light

"I am the master of my fate
I am the captain of my soul"

"And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid"

"I am the master
I am the master (of my fate)"
