Consequences

by Matthias L. - Capricorn

Against the odds I'm going on
What else should I do?
When nothing is everything else I've got

Destiny says yes and no
and it never seemed the cards contained more truth
The coin was sure it must be heads
And turned cause tails might be in just as well

Define what I have to be
If in balance I still want to be
Moments have an afterglow of hours, even days
But there's got to be a conclusion

I still remember all the futures I have seen
But can't recall the times in which I've been
In worlds that never existed to this point

See the black turn back to color slightly
Part of me believes
That there is still a chance
While others realized
It's another broken dream
Too beatiful to let go
Too painful to go on

If there was just enough time to see
Some sense to come into this madness
Trapped again,
I remain unknown
To the lighter sides within
But the key is getting pulled away
And the thief is never seen

Now I can feel the cracks
Spreading from my heart onto my soul
Dying must be easier
But I can't have someone else
Face the consequences 
Of my fear
