Instinct


Someone help me,
     Show me what to do with my life
          Tell me how I should feel
Someone tell me
     What it is that is wrong and is right
          Tell me now what is real

I'm so lost in this maze
     I don't know how I got through it this far
I've lost track of the way
     I don't know how to get back to the start
          Of this labyrinth that's my soul
          I'm just waiting for my personal minotaur
     To come and rip me apart

Why am I here?
     Why should I live through this pain
          If it's only to die in the end?
How do I win?
     Why should I play through the game
          If there's no way on earth I can win?

I didn't ask to be put here
     Set down in this wasteland of hate and fear
I've discovered that there's just one way out
     Death is the only gateway out of here
          But I don't want to die
          I'm not just quite sure why
     But instinct makes me run when death is near...
