When the Path is Unclear

You are lost
 One by one
 As you sink
 As you suffer
 You will know
 Just how far
 You have left
 You are lost
 One by one
 As you sink
 Into lethargy
 Giving in
 Letting go
 When the path is unclear
 A lifetime of expectation built on generations of accusation
 You'd adopt the attitude of a storm
 But the storms want nothing to do with you
 You'd do well to take heed of the subtlety of
 The winding stream, of the spider of subversion.
 The champions of your past conquered nothing,
 And neither will you.
 You carved your name deep in the earth
 Those crevices will echo your shame
 Symbols cut clear and bold
 Those crevices will echo your shame
 No room for ambiguity
 Those crevices will echo your shame
 In time it will crumble and decay
 Those crevices will echo your shame
 No longer plagued by the grinding of your spirit
 All you have doubted your future clouded
 You can not act with conviction when the path is unclear.
 You'd cast aside and turn away
 You'll bare the blight
 You'll wear your shame
 You'll never hide
 We'll carve your name
 Sink, suffer, regret, shame
