The markings burned in leaving no doubt or question a permanent sign

The burden will not be thrown

The yoke will not break

The body the opposite all too fragile

Running in circles burrow in

The weight suffocating under the curses you bear

Suffer this debt with pride and foolish resolve

The tripwire noose that your wear so close to snapping

Start the end cycle on step away

Make your decision to last the rest of your days

Will you become host or disease

Alive or living buried or mourning

Drawing a lien in sand

Lacking the strength

Walking the fence long enough gravity calls

A simple decision left out of your hands

Accept or deny your place

It's insignificant

We're so small

Taking the low point dragging it down

The worst isn't over

Your life has begun
