Once sholess I walked my path
untouched by growing pain
spines and edging bits of glass
touching limits in my soles

Once I feared not what my heart spoke
lending ears to my own hidden lore
Destiny was a tamed and noble beast
which I rode with pride and joy

How blind is clarity?
What lies I fed upon my yarn?
what evil did I spawn?
It wasn´t me the master
I was but a slave

Intoxicated slave,
I tried to reach the light
but in your eyes
I thought i saw myself
I forgot how to live when you left

now my feet are bleeding
