I have walked so long
in this bitter night
Forcing each step
with no end in sight

I have lost many things on my way
hopes and fears, innocence and trust
I left them all behind
sitting quietly in the dust

I have met many demons
full of spit and froth
I have sat and watched
as the flame consumes the moth

I continue walking
in search of the light
In search of an end
to this bitter night

We walk our paths
time and again
Eyes looking forward
to where we’ve been

Times have changed
from what we knew
Of how we were
and how we grew

We choose our paths
with each new step
With lessons learned
and tears we wept

A time will come
so very soon
To deny the sun
and embrace the moon

Walking paths
as life wears on
We chase our dreams
when love has gone

Paths twist and turn
scenery changes
As they always have
throughout the ages

As we search these paths
we seek to find
The strength of love
and peace of mind

So choose your steps
and walk them true
For each path
holds something new

Walking down an empty street
leaving spots of blood as glass cuts my feet
Feeling trapped in this institution
the time has come for revolution

Captors kill the imagination
so prisoners can’t see the revelation
They will never heal from this trauma
this curse laid by the hands of dogma

In the shadows we hear them cry
“The free heart must die!”
Now put an end to this confusion
we must fight for revolution

We have the cause, we have the right
our time has come to begin the fight
We must rise above this involution
we must fight for revolution
