Oceans Of Slumber - The Impermanence Of Fate

Run your hardest
Chase away the sun
Never let it set on
On what you, and what you've done
Long are the days when
Expectation leads us
When blood determines your path
Who you are, what you want, where you're going

It's not over, not yet
Fight for your place
I know my name and what it means
And what I have to say
I'll never stop fighting
I'll never back down, no
I know my name and what it means
And what I have to say
Say

I know it can be hard
How every other tree touches the sky
How the other branches nourish
Like they know why they were designed
I know because I fell from one
Striving, reaching, aiming at the night
In view of all the stars
But always told I could never shine

Life
Left in the night
Striving to shine
But never held in kind
Life gave a direction
But never a goal I don't despise

Shaking hands and a trembling heart
I fight all through the night
Told to always be reposed
Told to always be loyal
Strive to shine

Fight for your place
I know my name and what it means to me
I'll never stop fighting
And I'll never back down
I know it can be hard
How every other tree touches the sky
How every other branch nurtures
You fell from one too
You just never knew whose

We run our hardest
Chase away the sun
Never let it set on
On what you and what you've done
Gone are the days when
Expectation leads us
When blood determines our path
Who we are, what we want, where we're going

I'll run my hardest
I chase the sun away
I'll never give in I'm trying, I'm trying
The end will come now
We'll fight until the day
I wonder what time has in store
I wonder, wonder, wonder
I'll never give in, I'm trying, I'm trying
