lyrics

Paddling a boat on Lake Betrayal
Consumed by a deluge of rhetoric
Washing over all that's mystic
And forcing a personal Holy Grail
Inner wisdom drowns in the current
History drowns in the past
Deceptions spring forth all too fast as
Inner visions came and went
How am I not myself?
By forgetting my purpose and place
How am I not myself?
By giving in and losing grace
Beaten down from external will, and
Mandates trapping the spirit
Pushing their way deep within it
Subsumed by norms twisted yet shrill
Yet one can rise from the carnage
To calm the mighty thunder from
Archetypal sages under
Each attempt to come of age
