Cycles of Tragedy

Back and forth, the face-to-face
Space between the emptiness
We don’t always radiate a sense of fate
But it’s the place I long to be
I believe it’s my destiny
A crater laid empty
Seems to increase
Stable safety rears its pretty face
Afraid of the failure
Afraid of the pain
Inside the back-and-forth
Between the emptiness
Is the place I long to be
Another shot at destiny
Inside the back-and-forth
Between the emptiness
Is the place I long to be
Another shot at destiny
Careful brain I creep right past you
My actions test your security
I’m not afraid of your healing approval
Snapped in half, broken in two
Inside the back-and-forth
Between the emptiness
Is the place I long to be
Another shot at destiny
Inside the back-and-forth
Between the emptiness
Is the place I long to be
Another shot at destiny
Back and forth, the face-to -face
Space between the emptiness
We don’t always radiate a sense of fate
But it’s the place I long to be
My eyes at times see the perfect picture
Yet I sacrifice
Solid ground and a balanced life
