The Will

(Music by Paul, Lyrics by Jeremy)

I wind down for the day
I stop to reflect an empty face
Something - I can't explain
Replaces the need to fill the space

A wise man stands aimless
Soul-searching, cowardice
Stability has gone away

The eyes to see; the air to breathe
The will to be has gone away

Once I couldn't feel
Betrayed by an empty entity
Now, I'll never heal
Alone, I've become my enemy

A strong man stands weakened
Old wounds reopened
My sanity has gone away
Away

The arms to reach; the legs to flee
The will to be has gone away
Again

I wander through my mind
And I find there, a plane on which to stand
So I stay
Until the time pure freedom will take my frail hand

A downed man has risen
Though once imprisoned
The boundaries have gone away

The chains that bind a soul confined
The love for you has gone away
Again
And again
