Burning - Higher Power

The eternal question in my mind

When it’s burning deep inside

Sometimes it feels like the only way out

When I’m alone with my mind

Look in the mirror, dead man stares back at me

As I start to realize my own mortality

The body grows weak as the mind grows old

Hear the grave calling from the earth so cold

And it feels likes the grim reaper’s walking right behind me

Everyday a roll of the dice

Land the wrong face, I’ll see you on the other side

In this race for peace or death

Numb the pain and find myself again

Persistent thoughts run through my mind

Devil on my back please numb the pain

I’m just trying to find peace

As my body grows weak

From the cradle to the grave, to this inner turmoil

I’m enslaved
