Hardest Path, Greatest End

from Prologue by The Distant Fourth

lyrics

I breathe air tinged with fervor,
Blood flowing violently,
Victimizing the body in return.

Am I trapped in this mentality?
The bull once enchained now
set loose onto society.

Can this grasp last me long enough?
Loosening slowly,
Tearing apart my memories,
Every single thing I love.
Every single thing I love
fades away.

And I'm left wondering,
Is there hope for me?

And I'm left wondering,
Is there hope for me?

And I'm left wondering,
Is there...

I breathe air tinged with fervor,
Blood flowing violently,
Victimizing the body in return.

What am I harboring?
My heart beats to a drum of
terror and agony.

This state of conflict.
My instincts persist, I put my body into fits
of interminable ire and blank consciousness

And I am in
A constant state of conflict.
The more I resist, the harder it constricts
around my throat, cutting off the ties
to the life that I live.

I see only one thing
And it’s killing me so slowly
Just a fatal mentality

Rising from inside
Nothing can compromise
Rising from inside
Nothing can compromise

My definition of life is a reprise
Of endless struggle and desperate cries
And yet I keep breathing despite
Everything that’s not right

Through enduring hard times,
A man will find solace
In life
