Altered State

Winding down life’s dusty road
A highway carved from stone
Following a path of hope
My destination still unknown
Drifting through a silent dream
Afraid I’ve been betrayed
Focusing to reach the end
A message shared I must relay
I know I’ll face all fear
I know a choice is drawing near
I know that all I feel inside
Leaves room for change I can’t deny
I’ve traveled far to reach the top
The mountain lies before me
I understand the choice I make
I’ve learned to live with what must be
Shifting out of where I’ve been
Seeing more than I saw then
Finding choice in what’s been said
Seeing work in what’s ahead
What I felt inside my mind
I had no doubt that I could find
I’ve reached the door without a key
Content with what I’ve learned to see
I know I’ll face all fear
I know a choice is drawing near
I know that all I feel inside
Leaves room for change that I can’t hide
I’ve traveled far to reach the top
The mountain lies before me
I understand the choice I make
I’ve learned to live with what must be
I know I’ll face all fear
I know a choice is drawing near
I know that all I feel inside
Won’t let me fall, won’t let me slide
I’ve traveled far to reach the top
The mountain lies before me
I understand the choice I make
I’ve learned to live with what must be
