~~Ah, the Fates~~

Ah, my life

How trustworthy and reliable

A pattern to be followed

A trend to be broken

A handful of friends

A broken batch of trust

Ah, how understandable

How usual it is

If only I could shatter it

Break out, and flee

Cheerfully and darkly

Burn it, burn it all

Consign the past to the flame

As I burn myself

Run flame across my skin

Cry out in agony, and peace

In delight and in cold

Forget it, and move on

My life, how glorious

Is my life

As the fates dance and mock

As I mock them

As I burn

How glorious, how glorious!

How glorious it is

To burn

To burn as the night falls

Burn as the day ends

Burn as the world finishes

And speaks to me:

"Young one, you dance

"Young one, you burn

"Young one, your life

"Is done."

How wondrous it would be

If I could end

But I cannot.

I must fight to be proud

Must fight to love

Must fight until I can rest

My goal's in sight, and I

As always

Remain my only obstacle.

I will find my way

To peace

No matter what the Fates

Demand of me.
