We Break Ourselves

We see the rocks ahead
as we are carried on the tides
we fight, and we struggle
we break ourselves on those sharp edges

We can see the darkness ahead
as we walk a lonely path
we rage, and we wrestle
we lose ourselves inside that inky void

We see the danger looming
with neon signs and chanting voices
but we stand our ground, we hold fast
we break ourselves against the impossible odds

We see the danger looming
and we choose fight over flight
a losing battle against an amoral enemy
we break ourselves…
