Reality Check

Lyrics by Dave Hargreaves

The Lie keeps coming back to me.
Echoes of animosity.
Time made it a prophecy:
Foretold by you , fulfulled by me.

Prisoner of apathy,
Blindfolded visionary.
Passion creativity,
Put on hold indefinately.

When i started out I couldn't see,
What the world would hold in store for me.
Lonely years spent lost and dreaming,
B roken down, and robbed of meaning.

Visions abandoned.
Heart turned black and cold
Fading reflections
Of the soul that I sold

Passion lost to hate and anger, bitterness and stifled rage.
Fueled by years of life's frustrations spilling out across the page
Energy and time are wasted, always someone else to blame.
Self sufficient, self reliant, this time it won't be the same.

No way out that I can see.
Persevering eternally.
Self inflicting insanity,
Bringing out the very best in me...

Looking back on everything I've learned throughout the years,
Questioning everything I feel.
Searching for an answer, for some truth I can believe.
Trying to find the way to make it real.

Visions inspired and returned from the cold,
Utilised all that I knew.
The progress I make and the work that I've done
Is the proof that I'll never need you.
