[Intro] This is the be all, the end all
The burden, the blessing
This is the be all, the end all
The burden, the blessing

[Verse 1] I've made promises that I know I can't keep
Drink from the holy grail, you'll find it's bittersweet
No matter what he says, poison is not my friend
But he'll have my back until the bitter end

[Pre-Chorus] Always climbing but only ever descending
The canvas before me is never-ending

[Chorus] So call for the crossroads if you're lost in the woods
If I drop this torch, then I'll be gone for good
I said "enough is enough"
Well, I guess I lied, I guess I lied

[Post-Chorus] This is the be all, the end all
The burden, the blessing
This is the be all, the end all
The burden, the blessing

[Verse 2] All my mistakes will outlive me
I just can't accept that what will be will be
My lungs are failing, I can't catch my breath
I don't know why, but right now I'm scared to death
My fear still sees when my eyes are closed
But the blame's on me, this is the path I chose

[Pre-Chorus] Always climbing but only ever descending
The canvas before me is never-ending

[Chorus] So call for the crossroads if you're lost in the woods
If I drop this torch, then I'll be gone for good
I said "enough is enough"
Well, I guess I lied, I guess I lied

[Bridge] I wasted time building castles in the air
If there's peace to be found, I won't find it there
My fear still sees when my eyes are closed
But the blame's on me, this is the path I chose
This is the path I chose
This is the path I chose

[Outro] I wasted time building castles in the air
If there's peace to be found, I won't find it there
My fear still sees when my eyes are closed
But the blame's on me, this is the path I chose
