I RISE AND I FALL
I rise to fall again,
From the heights of hopes I have built,
From the errors that hold my guilt,
I'm immersing in pain.
I rise to fall again,
From the dreams that shadow my past,
From the talents that I bypassed,
I'm going so insane.
I rise to fall again,
From the faith in mankind I have,
From the truth in ideals I crave,
I'm meeting my own bane.
Yet!
I fall to rise again,
To the height of hope I have crashed,
To the errors I made unabashed,
I'm freeing myself from pain.
I fall to rise again,
To the dreams that light my future,
To the talents that I nurture,
I'm regaining my sane.
I fall to rise again,
To the faith that is in mankind,
To the true ideals disinclined,
I'm crucifying my bane.
