Journey of the Soul

Journey of the Soul 

I thought the battles were over,

I really thought I'd won

Many an unholy beast have I slain in my quest

I've marched on and on across battlefields

I've earnt every kink in my armour, every scar I bare

and yet I cannot bare the blood on my hands

no matter how many times I pray

I know it's my nature to be a sinner

all cause I was born of flesh and bone,

all cause I was born a 'man'

These demons I'm continually plauged with

for every two steps forward, I feel there is one backwards to

I'm tired from my burden

but there's no tears left in my once innocent eyes

I've seen to much of mans' destruction,

felt to much hatred instead of love

learnt so young the lessons of fighting 'men'

(if that is what you can call them)

My trust is tainted,

but I must still believe it exists

My idea of love shattered,

but still I piece together my heart and hope...

one day it'll feel true love and know it's for real

again

I'm not perfect, but I do intend being

the best I can be

I extend you an invite,

I'm on a journey of the soul

there will be no material treasures

but there will be riches beyond your wildest 

dreams.
