   Powerless

   POWERLESS I did my best to change your mind, Showing you real love and helping you find A different way to live and believe, To open your heart and help you see. I gave you my heart, but it was in vain, You’ve let the wrong ones lead you in the wrong way. I cannot force, I cannot guide you, You've chosen those who stand beside you. Their words are false, their counsel wrong, Yet still, you let them drag you all along. If only you would clearly see, These voices harm, yet you won’t flee. You cling to those who led you wrong, You keep them close, and they stay strong. I know I struggled with some truths, But I fought them hard, all for you. Even though I knew it was tough, I was willing to try, to give you enough. Their wisdom costs us all we share, While mine would give you love, so true and rare. I faced my fears and doubts for you, Though it was hard, I saw it through. I was willing to fight and go your way, Even when I knew the cost I’d pay. I know you trust the words they say, Believe their lies, and go their way Even they think their path is true, But you can’t see the damage they put you through. If you won't let their falsehoods go, Or free yourself from what you know, I cannot stay, I've done my part— I won't be lost where wrongness starts. Their grip is tight, their whispers loud, Their lessons echo, twisting your mind, You hold them close, refusing to see, That they are chains, not setting you free. The right is hard, it feels so cold, The wrong seems sweet, with lies they’ve sold. But fleeting joy fades fast away, While true peace comes another day. So here I leave, my heart, my key, If my soul can’t make you see Farewell, my love, I hope you find, The peace I wished for you in my time.
