Relinquish

There's dust in my mind
Whenever I try to remember the past
There's mist replacing time
But the feelings will outlast
Sunk deep within myself
All the time it cost
And if you don't play, you cannot win
I played, we lost
How to crawl up again
To rise above the skyline
Take back what I lost
The things that used to be mine
Regain the control of my thoughts
And master my emotions
To reach inside of me
Give myself devotion
Listen to my own will
And live for it as far as I can go
To breathe for myself
Accept everything I know
This will not last forever
I shall not join the deceased
One day I'll conquer
One day I'll be released
