This is a crisis I knew had to come 
Destroying the balance I'd kept 
Doubting, unsettling and turning around 
Wondering what will come next 

Is this the role that you wanted to live? 
I was foolish to ask for so much 
Without the protection and infancy's guard 
It all falls apart at first touch

Watching the reel as it comes to a close 
Brutally taking its time 
People who change for no reason at all 
It's happening all of the time 

Can I go on with this train of events? 
Disturbing and purging my mind 
Back out of my duties, when all's said and done 
I know that I'll lose every time

Moving along in our god-given ways 
Safety is sat by the fire 
Sanctuary from these feverish smiles 
Left with a mark on the door 

Is this the gift that I wanted to give? 
Forgive and forget what they teach 
Or pass through the deserts and wastelands once more 
And watch as they drop by the beach

This is a crisis I knew had to come 
Destroying the balance I'd kept 
Turning around to the next set of lives 
Wondering what will come next
