I'll take three steps forward And two steps back It seems I'm being held By this burden I've kept And I Don't think I can lose it I'll set my eyes before me Get my head on track But I keep turning around To catch a glimpse of my past And I'm Afraid I'll pursue it Under the weight of these confessions Under the weight of these confessions Under the weight of these confessions Under the weight of these confessions I am not trying to be someone that I am not I'd be a fool if I thought I could pull that off My heart it is beating so fast I just want it to stop Show me Your vision and I'll say it's all that I've sought I'll say that I'll give it all that I've got But I think you can tell a liar Silly me Playing with matches But never expecting the fire Now I'm seeing It burn everything to the ground While I'm lost in desire This is not who I'm supposed to be I'm hanging close to the edge And approaching the point of just cutting the wire So that I can freefall It's crazy But I feel like I've been here before The devil's been knocking so loud I guess it's only time before I go And open the door Let him in like he's welcomed I've been finding it hard to repel him I used to know just what to say But of late I've been finding That turning away these temptations Is turning too seldom This is not how it's supposed to be I pictured life through supposedly visions Envisioned by those who sought pleasures Enclosed to be opened by those who were hoping I guess it was closed to me I can see the sun setting But I've got so many sins left to mention Progress is seeming to pick a direction But it's moving slow 'cause it's under The burden of all these confessions I'll take three steps forward And two steps back It seems I'm being held By this burden I've kept And I Don't think I can lose it I'll set my eyes before me Get my head on track But I keep turning around To catch a glimpse of my past And I'm Afraid I'll pursue it Under the weight of these confessions Under the weight of these confessions Under the weight of these confessions Under the weight of these confessions Don't tell me to turn around I know what's happened Don't say that these problems are lasting Cause you know I haven't stopped And there's more that I've dragged in I just want them in the past tense Bury them deep in a grave that I've fashioned Fasten it tightly with every action Further ignoring the fact that I'm using A mind that it's maimed and a heart that it's blackened I see the sun and it's setting out there I feel the dark creeping in on me And I know I'm not prepared I will try to invoke a deep breath So that I can just whisper a prayer You can bet I am scared Of what's coming Knowing what I'll be confronting Something inside me knows that I can't get away from it But then there's another voice screaming That I should keep running "Run. Run." That's what it's saying to me Every time that I stop it reminds me of how I am weak Of how I've got nothing to offer and no one to please I usually notice the difference between the truth and the lies But it getting so hard to see when the sun is retreating I'm watching it steal away any last remnant of light So I'll go Will I ever return? I don't know There's a million questions that I will forego Following voices that come from below I'm chasing fruit that's forbidden And my conscience is seeming to lose all its fight You say that you want me Well if that is true then you'll have to come follow me into The night
