This Burden Is Mine

A dream does often belong to one
 The chosen path, a lonely quest begun
 And I will try to find you
 And I will not forsake your memory
 Of a journey into the unknown I speak
 Where the chances to succeed are bleak
 Like a walk down life's one way street
 Can I be all that I was never meant to be?
 And I turn around now and there's no one there
 My trust, shattered like glass
 My brothers, deserted me along the path
 My faith, an ever-wavering pendulum
 My face, still hiding all the broken pieces
 I walk through the shadows I break through the hate
 I control my destiny I accept not this fate
 This burden is mine to bear
 I play with the fire I tear through the veil
 I will rise up against your army of hate
 I hide not my scars I live through the pain
 In this world of treachery I make my own way
 This burden is mine to bear
 I will not depend I will not embrace
 Alone in this journey I must remain
 This burden is mine to bear
 The hours wait for no one
