Take a chance and toss the dice Choose the one for the sacrifice Defy the consequence that accompanies sin Wipe the slate clean and again begin Talk about what is really screwed up Feel the rage as it threatens to erupt Face the reality because it will always exist The fantasy is tempting but you must resist The silence of the moment tantalizes you near Focus yet distract and the serenity will appear Remember that it can easily do a 180 around Realize that beauty resides in the lack of a sound Dismiss the hands that push you too fast Each separate event cannot avoid the past Normally you know it wouldn't blur like this You are captured in a single frame and unable to progress Gather all your cards and refuse to deal The tendency toward denial will always appeal Admit the insanity but don't let it out Work with the cause because you know what it's all about All good may be found when you contemplate Use your powers of evil to manipulate Duplicate the actions done well before Envision the goal and the peace to restore You must use the thought or an idea to compel Nevermind universal notions that claim it's to dwell Benefit from the revelations that are bound to occur Reduce the anxieties b/c you will not be what you were Form your own footsteps because you need not fit a mold What is done is confusing so it will not be sold Don't ever long for the gift to be lost Obtaining the normalcy is never worth the cost So here you go to explore again Out with the old and fresh wounds to mend Express how it is and don't ever retract And if the struggle becomes too heavy...disassociate and distract.
