My Obligatory Fate...

When people go and tell me that things will be ok…
…it usually leaves me guessing, never knowing what to say…
This time it feels that all I'm ever doing is living at their beck and call…
…I'm fighting their resistance, but I'll be only the one that falls…

Running through the current…
…forcing my way beyond the crowd…
I can see you in distance…

…In my heart, I know you're proud…

You the only voice of reason,

In a life that's lost all hope…
The one that I can turn to…
…if I need to laugh or cry or mope…

It's a hard pill for me to swallow…
The choice wasn't mine to make…
But it's closing time and it's time to find…
…my obligatory fate…

Love me or leave me…
…you don't have to shed my blood to bleed me…
Cautious, but carefree…
…your voice is the only thing to heal me…

Will you be there in the moment when my skin reflects the light…

I can see your face, I can see your soul…
…my heart will tell me when it's right…

It's a hard pill for me to swallow…
The choice was not mine to make…
But it's closing time and it's time to find…
…my obligatory fate…

In the moment that we live in, you're the only one for me to trust…
…it's hard enough to keep the friendship from being cute to being lust…
When I realize what you mean to me and what I have to lose…
…I'll have to understand that life here would be the next thing I would choose…

It's a hard pill for me to swallow…
The choice was not mine to make…
But it's closing time and it's time to find…
…my obligatory fate…
