Human Way
In the mist of madness
Over stepping the sadness
I open my eye and see
Lost souls seeking to be free
Trapped in the darkness seeking the light
Lost in the moment they struggle and fight
In a darkness of confusion and pain
Lost souls struggle in vain
This way or that way it ends up the same
Memories of sadness times of shame
Haunting the dark part of your mind
Things you are unable to leave behind
Hiding yourself deep in a shell
A feeling your starting to know well
Reaching out finding only air
A place in your mind says not to care
Reaching and grasping for life giving light
The human way is to stand up and fight
Walking ahead through sadness and pain
Trying to spiritually clear up the stain
Lost souls fighting to be free
Only needing to stop and see
They are the light they seek to find
Trust in themselves leave the past behind
