This is the be all, the end all The burden, the blessing I've made promises that I know I can't keep Drink from the holy grail, you'll find it's bittersweet No matter what he says, poison is not my friend But he'll have my back until the bitter end Always climbing but only ever descending The canvas before me is never- ending So call for the crossroads if you're lost in the woods If I drop this torch, then I'll be gone for good I said "enough is enough" Well, I guess I lied... I guess I lied This is the be all, the end all The burden, the blessing All my mistakes will outlive me I just can't accept that what will be, will be My lungs are failing, I can't catch my breath I don't know why, but right now I'm scared to death My fear still sees when my eyes are closed But the blame's on me, this is the path I chose Always climbing but only ever descending The canvas before me is never- ending So call for the crossroads if you're lost in the woods If I drop this torch, then I'll be gone for good I said "enough is enough" Well, I guess I lied... I guess I lied I wasted time building castles in the air If there's peace to be found, I won't find it there My fear still sees when my eyes are closed But the blame's on me, this is the path I chose This is the path I chose... This is the path I chose... I wasted time building castles in the air If there's peace to be found, I won't find it there My fear still sees when my eyes are closed But the blame's on me, this is the path I chose
