Everlasting solitude is where I find myself Looking back upon past years, how'd it get to this Endless times I counted blessings, what I'm grateful for Never did I realise they owed me so much more Overdue respect is what I grew used to Long time getting through Long time passing, long time passing Long time getting through One more time - forever mine One last time - never mine One more step to be the last, consuming darkness has been cast Raped from all that I once owned, again I find myself alone Unceasing calls for retribution, deserving for those in accusion Eternally trapped to adversary hatred, pleas to breathe never got answered Overdue respect is what I grew used to Long time getting through Long time passing, long time passing Long time getting through One more time - forever mine One last time - never mine Cry outs for the grave I seek have turned to all but dust Distanced from the truth I need, this time of life unjust Break and crack this outer shell, revealing whats inside Terror strikes the face of those who see the man with pride Overdue respect is what I grew used to Long time getting through Long time passing, long time passing Long time getting through One more time - forever mine One last time - never mine
