I see the world, through eyes of desperation
Never knew how long I'd fall
But I fell, through years and years of darkness
Still I cannot seem to hit the ground
I let my guard down, and you caught me by surprise
Nothing is ever carved in stone
Will I spend my life
Wondering
What could have been, and throw it away
Or will I struggle on
And find a better path for myself
I built my life, upon decades of experience
What I built for years took days for you to raze
In the end I learned that one single snowflake
Can set an avalanche in motion
Some questions are dangerous, the truth is not an option
This is the illusion I pulled down over your eyes
But I let my guard down, and you caught me by surprise
Nothing is ever carved in stone
Will I spend my life
Wondering
What could have been, and throw it away
Or will I struggle on
And find a better path for myself
For myself
I secure my every step
Slowly I advance away from you
How can I forgive you
When it wasn't your fault
(One strum per chord)
Will I spend my life
Wondering
What could have been...
(normal strumming)
Will I spend my life
Wondering
What could have been, and throw it away
Or will I struggle on
And find a better path for myself
Will I spend my life
Wondering
What could have been, and throw it away
Or will I struggle on
And find a better meaning for myself
