Lyrics

I had one soul to give, My life was nimble
Pick and choose the life to live - It's a symbol of
The trapped but necessary path we choose
Not to find out til much later if we lose.
 
I took the path more worn-torn from feet before me
Assuming that the world would ignore me
And all my silly dreams made of clouds and wishes
I didn?t dream the consequence could be so vicious.
 
But not there's no turning back only forward go the pages
They are black with regret
Is there time to push the limit of my captor
And go for the path less-traveled after.
 
Lady I don't know who told you but I will not live my life for your approval.
I know you've traveled far and deep and feel those choices made make you the hero.
Please understand the choice you made and your whole life is how you paid your penance.
I know I'm yours but now I'm grown. I've learned to live my life alone so let me - or let me go.
 
Each day I recognize, as those go further - I fall behind the same losing time as I am weathered from the years of compromise, spent in fear and caution.
I guess to start now or quit are my only two options.
