I walk through our time

With my head held high

I've faced all my demons head-on

I've faltered and failed

But always prevailed

Manifold battles I've won

I've seen through the darkness

I've conquered the night

I've followed the path of my choice

When life takes me on

I'm driven and strong

I'm poised for the battles to come

I'll battle addiction to the end of time

There's no benediction for this curse of mine

Unfold affliction, it's my inner war

The warfare rages on and on and on

I walk through each night

With my head held down

I've faced all my demons alone

Every time I have failed

And never prevailed

Each and every battle was lost

I fell in the darkness

Was mazed, I was blind

Never found the path of my choice

When life takes me on

I barely hang on

All hope is now long since gone

The burden of time

Weighs heavy on your mind

In search of a sign

You cannot seem to find

I'll battle addiction to the end of time

There's no benediction for this curse of mine

Unfold affliction, it's my inner war

The warfare rages on and on

I'm losing this battle, it's out of control

For years it's been taking its toll on my soul

Broken in body, I'm broken in mind

The end drawing near, life passed me by
