about

An anthem for the survivors.

lyrics

The smoldering ruins behind me
Become a distant memory
I won't be bound to those wrongs
I've worn that albatross for too long

Embrace the rocks above me
Thoughts crash against the solemn stone
The cliffs give rise to my wings
In the distance a funeral bell rings
I've buried that past, it's long gone
I'll take my angel and fly on

Against the rolling thunder
I'll raise a brave face
I will cut my path with a whispering hand
Across deserts and tundra
My spirit soldiers on
From piercing dusk to the light of dawn

And in the murky twilight
When my fight is done
There'll be no poets writing my requiem
No bards to sing my praises
As my eyes close the final time
But I will rest in peace knowing I fought well

I have failed and tasted success
I have wronged and been wronged
and I have paid my debts
I reject your guilt
You will not control me with my past sins
I choose to survive
I choose life
The bridges I've crossed
And bridges I've burned
I regret nothing
I walk in the now
I'll take my angel and fly on
