I have seen the best of them fall short on their own convictions
seeking the truth in the darkest corners of this crooked world
weakened bodies, polluted minds, broken dreams is all they'll find
troubled souls
heavy hearts
all torn apart
must stand the test of time
won't let the weight of these violent times pull me down under the surface to view the world from the bottom of a lifeless ocean
can't run from this fight
must stand the test of time
