I've considered all the options
I've discovered many clues
I've indulged myself with answers
that I know I'll never use

Such inverted inspiration
takes it's place within us all
I reach out for something distant
and begin to fall

And I see in misdirection
so much distance I can't cross
So I focus closer in
and count the difference as a loss

Now impeded by the moment
I should just flat out refuse
to indulge myself with victims
that I know I'll never use

I've bewildered all my mentors
Their suggestions I misuse
I've abandoned all the options
that I know I'll never use

Just as selfish introspection
takes it's place within us all
I make progress in my own way
it's a steady crawl

I've forgotten with surrender
what it's like to even strive
and relive the constant wonder
just to be alive
