Splashdown - Deserter lyrics

Sometimes I wonder why god put me on this earth I'm much too sensitive to survive Third degree burns from the politics of people playing with my consciousness And spending all of my trust in all the wrong places And leaving me to question And leaving me Deserted Yea, though I walk through the shadow of your valley I shall not fear the selfishly blind You've played me like the strings on your hollow-body Losing more than you will ever know And I will not be tempted in the presence of my enemies So please, just let me go And leave me to question And leave me Deserter Trying to accept my fate so graciously Absolutely sure that you were the one to be Before I take my lessons from adversity It's only natural I unleash an injured ego's meaningless search to be free From everything Closure... I will hold no grudge... I've seen your beauty... Who the hell am I to be a judge... I wish you well and I'll never ask why you never said goodbye to me... Deserter Trying to accept my fate so graciously Absolutely sure that you were the one to be I'll take my lessons from adversity And with the strength of god a gentle wind Will snuff this torch I still carry with me I am content to be moving on...
