Lyrics
Taking heed, we tread
Losing ground with every step
Lest we stray too far
T'ward the paths less worn
I lift my gaze from the trail
Reaching for your absent hand
To guide me through the briar
Only to find you've left me behind
To drift through the dust in your wake
Blinking, choking, I'm breathing in the debris
Discarded shell
Abiding in the shadow
On familiar ground
A failure abhorred, an attitude taught
Unbroken mold
Thus I am shunned
Taught to fear, taught to doubt
Through lack of trust
In your flaws, I see my own glaring back
I've no convictions to stand by
I have no vestige to trace
This wheel turns, never progressing
It bears old marks of neglect
Discarded shell
On familiar ground
This failure abhorred, an attitude taught
Unbroken mold
Thus I am shunned
Thus you are shunned
