I will find myself In these memories Bring control into the chaos Storming deep through all of me Find the light I lost Stem the entropy The light it fades but I remain Will I always be A shadow of myself? Yet again, I pick up the pieces Repeat and repeat till the sequence ceases Trying to write a thesis defining me In defiance of all the anxiety It's like cryosleep All those years locked away While the whole world got to play Self left to rot, decay Now I'm not the same But it's not too late 'Cause I've got today But what's today? All the flashbacks are cracking The memories oscillate As I grasp at the fragments A destiny lost to shade My whole past on display Path gone astray And I forgot where I lost the way So, allow me to postulate On the nature of what it takes To find heart to say that I'm not the fake They say I'm fearless They say I'm strong They say I'm peerless And they're no wrong But I was engineered for a job that's gone So I spend the years just grinding on Tell me, does it make you free or worthless If you can't complete your purpose? Am I the character between curse and cure Or just surplus 'neath the surface? I will find myself In these memories Bring control into the chaos Storming deep through all of me Find the light I lost Stem the entropy The light it fades but I remain Will I always be A shadow of myself? What's a hedgehog supposed to do When resolution's overdue? It's been 20 years since I first appeared And I still don't know the truth Ain't nobody lived a life so gritty As I blaze through midlife-crisis city On a motorcycle with a loaded rifle In the hopes the fight will quiet the nihilist in me Cast from a demon and the dreams of madmen That dream cast me left asleep, abandoned Had my light dashed Still I see the pattern Of an arc so dark it'd eclipse it's canon How many chapters and pages left? As I cling to the past to escape the next As I sift through the past on a razor's edge As I pick which path on the stage select How to find a way now I'm not programmed? Now I've got no cage But I've got no plan On a final chase trying to find a place But how am I to face when the clock throws hands? What's the point of running at light speed If I'm running from the choice of who I might be Live the life I lead looking behind me Because things were so much easier in the nineties It was just a simpler time, you know? I will find myself In these memories Bring control into the chaos Storming deep through all of me Find the light I lost Stem the entropy The light it fades but I remain Will I always be A shadow of myself? Can't you see me at the window With my hand against the glass? Time is leaving me in limbo Forced to languish in the past Now a future lies before me As I break from this machine Live and learn to write my story Until I am all of me I will find myself In these memories Bring control into the chaos Storming deep through all of me Find the light I lost Stem the entropy The light it fades but I remain Will I always be A shadow of myself? The age I was playing Sonic Adventure 2 was probably the last point in my life I remember actually understanding everything who I am, where I'm going The biggest problem in my life was trying to beat Canon's core And now I have a mortgage Adulting is hard
