Final Destination

Through years of trial and tribulation,
Forced smiles and rampant desolation,
I think I've finally found my way,
My path not always aligned in sight,
I know the road I follow seems right,
Though everything around me feels unfamiliar,
I am finally happy.

(Chorus)
I left home oh so long ago,
Bought a ticket for a ride far away,
When I departed,
I left without so much as a goodbye,
At a loss with no sense of closure,
I blamed myself for my misfortunes,
Lost my faith in humanity,
Questioned everything I held true shamelessly,
Secluding myself away from the world,
Forcing me to grow up and face reality,
Now I'm set to finish what I began,
This time around I have a plan.

Now that my path has been illuminated,
And I've finally awakened from my self-inflicted stupor,
I'm ready to start anew,
Open my mind and my eyes,
Look at everything from different perspectives,
See the good in everything,
Avoid that which seems contrary to my nature,
Follow my dreams and lift up my head,
Moving through the world in a different direction.


(Chorus)
I left home oh so long ago,
Bought a ticket for a ride far away,
When I departed,
I left without so much as a goodbye,
At a loss with no sense of closure,
I blamed myself for my misfortunes,
Lost my faith in humanity,
Questioned everything I held true shamelessly,
Secluding myself away from the world,
Forcing me to grow up and face reality,
Now I'm set to finish what I began,
This time around I have a plan.

I've decided to give love a second chance,
What I thought was love before,
Never truly could be,
What I felt was instead passion,
Really an attachment to an emotion I desire,
For love to be real,
It must never be one-sided,
So I'm praying that along this trip to my final destination,
I find someone who will be there,
To share with me that which I seek,
I hope that one day,
Love finds me.
