Daniel Plato - A Journey of Uncertainty (Insanity II) Lyrics

The road was very cloudy
Still I marched on
Following a bitter, but inspiring song
And at the end of roads
I'd give all that is left in me
To drive away these thoughts
Of insanity

My path was uncertain
My direction unsure
My feet had grown accustomed
To the pain they'd endured
And as my footing faltered
My courage stayed upright
Cause I knew I'd come too far
To give up this time

But the journey's far from over
And hope is far away
So I'll save all of my courage
For another day
Cause even without darkness
I am blinded just the same
So I'll hold on to what's left
And pray the rest is not insane

So I'll choose to cast away
My methods of escape
And though they tempt me on
The choice is mine to make
Cause if I stay I will not find
The change I need to see
To rid myself these thoughts
Of insanity

But the journey's far from over
And hope is far away
So I'll save all of my courage
For another day
Cause even without darkness
I am blinded just the same
So I'll hold on to what's left
And pray the rest is not insane

But the journey's far from over
And hope is far away
So I'll save all of my courage
For another day
Cause even without darkness
I am blinded just the same
So I'll hold on to what's left
And pray the rest is not insane
(The rest is not insane)

Don't wait, you cannot save me
I won't stay, you'll only break me
Don't wait, you cannot save me
I won't stay, you'll only bring me pain

But the journey's far from over
And hope is far away
So I'll save all of my courage
For another day
Cause even without darkness
I am blinded just the same
So I'll hold on to what's left
And pray the rest is not insane

The night is falling soon
I haven't got a shelter made
My thoughts deceive me
I'm addicted to their ways
I run in circles trying to find a better way
To break out of the cell they've placed me in
But here I remain

I trust in fleeting things, no wonder they all run away
I trust my instincts though they seem to always lead astray
It's funny how pleasure runs a thin line with shame
So I'll just watch as my ambitions bow to failure's new reign
My mind was made for greater things, why do I choose this path
The answers found in a creator I would never ask
My shame enveloping my actions 'til they all collapse
Insanity, it shadows any light I could have grasped
And I'm letting my guilt start to define me
It's hard to move forward when I'm still facing what's behind me
And though I'm self-aware of sin that's taking over slowly
Catering these lusts has always been the thing to blind me

And that's why I'm starting to fall for my dreams
They seem to live this life that I thought I was meant to lead
They seem to dance this line between my wishes
And what's real to me
And if I say they're right
Then I am dead to rights
Of what happens in this reality
I'm starting to peer through the seams
Of this constructed shell of me
It's sewn together ruggedly
The scrapwork of my destiny
There must be something more for me
But every time I question, I am lessened
To the point of insanity
Be tame my spirit, for I need you to be worthy
I am tired of returning to the urges of my body
I'm dirty, I run to things that only seem to hurt me
While still claiming I want more
For the same soul that will deter me
Be strong my beating heart
You have endured more shameful things than this
And I insist we mark ourselves for war
Enlist into this battle we have created
With our own self-indulgent bliss
Perhaps we have been created
For so much more than all of this

(I just don't know anymore)
(I mean, I've go all these questions swirling around)
(I can't seem to find any of the answers)
(Maybe I just haven't been looking in the right places, maybe)
(Maybe they're just a little out of my reach, maybe)
(There's gotta be more to all of this, right? There's got to be)
(There's got to be something that I've missed)
(Just got all these questions)
(There's got to be something more to this)
(There's got to be something more to all of this)
(Or is it just insanity?)
