Atra Vetosus - Forsaking Dreaded Paths

When will I escape?
Where shall I find refuge?

This, the meditation of my heart
A call to solitude
To forsake
That dreaded way

Purpose has fled
Meaning, long gone
Dismay has conquered
The victor of this war

Each day I walk the same path
Each day they teach me lies

Break me and tear me down
Use me, open my mouth
Loosen my tongue to pronounce exhortation
Sink my roots in deep
Find those streams beneath
Find what lies beneath the surface

Each day I walk the same path
Each day they teach me lies
Each day I walk the same path
Each day they teach me lies

When will I escape?
Where shall I find refuge?
When will I escape?
Where shall I find refuge?

Purpose is with you
Meaning abides
Rise up and conquer
This war shall subside
Purpose is with you
Meaning abides
Rise up and conquer
This war shall subside
