The Catalyst, Pt. II Lyrics

I saw myself

Small, fragile, uncomfortable

Tormented by the path I was taking

And the people I had surrounded myself with

Why am I here?

Day after day after day

Surrounded by cruelty, betrayal, pain, so much pain

Just how far can a person go

Before they cannot feel that pain anymore

Human beings. We are complex

We don't even really arrive at a place of understanding of ourselves

Let alone each other

We only get these tiny fragments

Moments of insight into each others minds

Minds which are constantly growing, changing, experiencing

And after all of this

You can only choose to forgive

It's that or continue torturing yourself for experiencing something

That was out of your control

It was out of your control

This was the catalyst

Not only to the end, but to the beginning

A moment of no return

Which should be embraced not as a loss

But as a second chance
