Reality & Fiction - Burning Down Alaska

My life’s

A Contradiction

Split into reality and fiction

My life’s a product

Of indecision

Of fear that retains me like prison

The imperfection in me

I’ve built my castle

I’ve built my walls

To protect me from all the world holds

All i wanted to be was a brave man

But the choices I make

The path that i take

Have made me to who I am

It took so long to see

To understand what I’ve grown to be

There’s so much more in me

My heart

Had good intentions

If they were the cause of my actions

If there was something

I could have done

To hold me away from the coward I’ve become

The imperfection in me

I built my castle

I built my walls

To protect me from all the world holds

All i wanted to be was a brave man

But the choices I make

The path that i take

Have made me to who I am

There’s so much more in me

So much more to set free

It took so long to see

To understand what I’ve grown to be

All i wanted to be was a brave man

But the choices I make

The path that I take

Have made me to who I am

It took so long to see

To understand what I’ve grown to be

There’s so much more in me
