Power Lies

how did i choose this path
how did i lose my past
why do i hold to my chest
every memory i mean to forget
how can i measure my length
where will i find my strength

power lies

how did i find myself on top
how will i ever know to stop
when will i learn to defend
when will i finally see the end

how can i erase my steps
how can i fake my death
how can i bear to leave
the air is too thin to breathe

power lies
it takes back what you take in time
