Here I am again In a place all too familiar A place that I have been so many times before My soul is tortured By constant analyzations In a world of frustrations What is it they want me to be? But I refuse to play their game of deceptions To be sentenced to slavement to everyone's perceptions I was trying to be seen without having to pretend But now I've been disillusioned and I find myself again in an avalanche In an avalanche In an avalanche If only I could see all the lies ahead of me A future so clear would help to ease my fears But since I lost my faith in tangible reality To only what my eyes can see I've lost sight of who I'm supposed to be A chain of events so intimately related Each and every one of them so carefully contemplated Perhaps I should listen to the advice of my friends But such is not my fate and here I am again In an avalanche In an avalanche In an avalanche Coming now In an avalanche I can never cease to be the person that I am But I just can't seem to measure up to all of my demands All my agony and sorrow may never find their compensation In this world of absurdity in which truth is its vexation When you feel the emptiness, the loneliness and despair When it seems the world has turned on you but you lack the strength to care Find the strength to rise again and return from the place you've been And find the courage to believe again in that which can't be seen In an avalanche In an avalanche In an avalanche In an avalanche In an avalanche
