A fresh impact onto the unknown,
As promising as beginnings go.
Confronting this argument.
The past is limited with silence;
Holding fragile moments dear,
But not one is sacred to you.
Mistaken immortality for failures;
Debilitated and taken down.
Blinded by intelligence at a lifetime's expense,
All that is evident misted with ignorance.
Disregard induced this decline;
Exhausted, scorned, worn and resigned.
What's impractical? What's impossible?
(To lead it on for song long)
Withdraw to where we've been before.
To go so far and no further.
