Set Before Us - Oblivion Lyrics

So, follow the beacon, follow the signs, the pillar of light as you try to separate right from wrong
The sign reads common sense
We are all offspring of darkness, children robbed of hope
If I give you a compass will you try to navigate the dark?

How will I find my way around this crooked heart?
Circle of life they say, but is there no way out?
So please save me because I'm drowning, can't find my way doing what you tell me?
(Hey, hey, hey, hey) What are we without guidance?
Nothing but empty shells

So how will I learn?
Only by experience can I rid the cancer, the ignorance that seeks out narrow minded
How will it end?
This sickness suffocates, slows the learning
Throw away all their so-called reasons
The choice is mine, I'll choose my direction

How will I find my way around this crooked heart?
Circle of life they say, but is there no way out?
So please save me because I'm drowning, can't find my way doing what you tell me?
(Hey, hey, hey, hey) What are we without guidance?
Nothing but empty shells

Within this maze that you have created I'm slowly dying, suffocating on your words of sorrow Like the autumn leaves I'm withering to the ground
Your will is killing me
Save me, save me, someone save me
Someone help me, we got to fight back
