A Downward Path Lyrics


Once she followed her dreams

She felt the urge to see

The mother's smile

The one in a mirror

Pins and needles penetrating the soul

Pressure to receive praise

To soothe the anger

Endless rejection

The mantra of self-hatred

The top of the ladder

A downward path

Once she threw away her dreams

She felt the urge to be

Free from the past and the future

Dancers, distant from each other

Lost in perfect synchronisation

Pins and needles penetrating the soul

Pressure to receive praise

To soothe the anger

Endless rejection

The mantra of self-hatred

The top of the ladder

A downward path

Loyal to the conditional

Choose

Self-love or an illusion

Pins and needles penetrating the soul

Pressure to receive praise

To soothe the anger

Endless rejection

The mantra of self-hatred

The top of the ladder

A downward path

Can you see the truth?

The right path?

Can you forgive and start anew?

Can you see the truth?

The right path?

Can you forgive and start anew?
