I'm on the outside and I'm not looking in 
Tangled by the fjords breathing down my skin 
A testimony to the fog bellowing around
'Tis the time to take destiny by the horns. 

Never near, yet so far 
Away from the vicissitudes that blind the heart 
Life's a bandage of fears 
On a mountain of scars. 

Faulty though the ride 
It shouldn't diminish the drive 
Falling all the time 
Determination sets the pace for intervention divine. 

A li'l leeway, a li'l grit for most part 
Gives the chance to show 
What sets us apart 
In a crowd full of stars.
