So a wandering ronin I became With a dripping blade and honor over everything Uncomfortable in my own skin Bound to sleepless nights and endless roads Demon's in my very head If you look, you can see me Grasping for a world that makes some sense Where through the dark there waits the light Betrayal, more than a dirty word for me Painful Everywhere I see Trust, became a diamond to me Beautiful Forever out of reach In came the sounds that would see me through Clenched fists, stage-dives Salvation found in gate-fold sleeves At last a place where I could breathe And being no good with change I threw away the key You'll have to drag me out of here I failed to protect my only brother When he needed me the most So I've tried to stand by those who I could And we were screaming all as one
