Throttle And Mask - Machinae Supremacy

I left their sheltered care and walked 
a rogue in total freedom 
to see the world with my own eyes 
live by my sword 
I joined the fray to find 
what I believed was instant wisdom 
but what I got was more than I ever wished for 

Hate to bring you down, 
to push your face into the ground 
but it never is that simple! 
Try so hard 
to see the shards for what they are... 
No, it never will be simple! 

Sometimes emotion clouds my sight 
as I rejoice in life 
I know to treasure my own zest 
for I am still young 
I let my inspiration 
savior me from mundane strife 
and I refuse to go unheard, my truth unsung
