All Is Not Lost

I know so much, but I do not know myself
Wolf personalities as well as those of an elf
I have put all these on the shelf

Maybe I am losing me
Maybe the world is just mean,
With all its paradoxes,
And am acting like a tinderbox

I am looking over my shoulders all times
What what I want to be some time
Even though life is what you make it, sometimes life itself makes us, we become it

Life never ends, dreams are never bent
Betwixt reality and fantasy, many things I yearn to amend
Hoping I will soon find my end

Frogs in the well do not understand the sea,
But what if I say I am that frog in the sea?, it may seem
Sounds like a complete break from reality
But I am still a finality, Indeed my finality

I have had uncountable friends
But now they are more than strangers, let's not pretend
Hey pals, invite me to the dance, wait I lack good shoes
Wasn't universally despised from you, 've got to choose

My window closed a century ago
Got to the entry of every door
Many things I had to forego
Chose a different path
And it was said that I am a psychopath

I will remain to be a cloud hanging over your shoulders
Your entire life, till you cross my borders

'Two wrongs to do make a right, an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind'

Unless this makes sense, then my path will always lead to a different direction
And we don't have to love power more than life
Thought the day I met you was the day I was born,
Seemingly, our association was the center of strife

I was chasing a ghost,
Now I am in the deep end of the pool,
But I wanna act like I can swim, yet still the ghoul
Till all is not lost

Buddies, sometimes a man has to surrender to fate
Seldom hold on your horse, it would be too late
Hope this will make sense a little longer,
'Absence makes the heart go fonder'

If you throw me cheese anytime now, in fact,
I'd still act like a rat
All is not lost
