To Remain Here

This is my burden
My engaging gem
My bittersweet revenge
My impossible moment
A new synthetic turn
My embarrassing unrest
This is my burden
Think you're two steps ahead
Find you're ten steps behind
Every move that you make
Is divided
Between the road that you took
Just to get where you are
And now the road you must take
To remain here
This is my burden
My accepting heart
My stint from human pride
My impossible weakness
A steady dose of cut and tried
This is mine
Think you're two steps ahead
Find you're ten steps behind
Every move that you make
Is divided
Between the road that you took
Just to get where you are
And now the road you must take
To remain here
Sounds attained but feels surrendered
Tempting
Offensive
Smells like wine, goes down like murder
Tempting
Tainted
Convincing
Debated
Is this useless?
A night sky
A dull tone
When I'm in
A stone's throw
But can't move
Committed
To seeing
This finished
You think you're two steps ahead
And find you're ten steps behind
Every move that you make
Is divided
Between the road that you took
Just to get where you are
And now the road you must take
To remain here
To remain here!
