Joy

Have I no control, is my soul not mine? <br>Am I not just man, destiny defined? <br>Never to be ruled nor held to heel. <br>Not heaven or hell, just the land between. <br><br>Am I not man, does my heart not bleed? <br>No lord, no god, no hate, no pity, no pain, just me. <br><br>Comprehend and countermand. <br>Synchronous guidance. I choose my way. <br>Never to be ruled nor held to heel. <br>Not heaven or hell just the land between. <br>And am I not man? <br><br>So why do I love when I still feel pain? <br>When does it end, when is my work done? <br>Why am I lone and why do I feel <br>That I carry a sword through a battlefield? <br><br>So why do I love when I still feel pain? <br>When does it end, when is my work done? <br>Why do I fight and why do I feel <br>That I carry a sword, that I carry a sword? <br><br>Like the path to heaven or the road to hell, <br>Our choice is our own consequences bind. <br>We are the kings of wisdom, the fools as well. <br>We are the gods to many, we are humble men. <br>We who build great works just to break them down. <br>We who make our rules so we never fail. <br><br>So why do I love when I still feel pain? <br>When does it end, when is my work done? <br>Why am I lone and why do I feel <br>That I carry a sword through a battlefield? <br><br>So why do I love when I still feel pain? <br>When does it end, when is my work done? <br>Why do I fight and why do I feel <br>That I carry a sword, that I carry a sword, through a battlefield?
