Endless Desire

A silent blessing, a heart of dreams
Nothing but a vision torn at the seams
My hollow song brings a season of tears
Faith has overcome those fallen years

A twinge of grief makes the urge fall apart
But once the seed is planted, the hunger starts
I must reach, grasp, embrace and conquer
The glitter of hope just makes me stronger

Behold my profound and meaningless gesture
Reality confines me like a frame does a picture
I touch, I sense, I feel, but it's too late
Some force has come to seal off my fate

My deepest wishes, and everything I crave
Serve my master, for I remain a slave
Lust and ambition only satisfy the beast
The wanting creature has finally come to feast

I try to adapt, but my feelings can't conceive
A life of a thousand lies that always deceive
Behind a barrier of fear, I hide all that cares
Fulfillment is absent within my prayers

The battle must go on, for the sun that sets
Knows no aspirations, and very little regrets
I've come so far, I won't be left alone
Endless desire, please take me home
