The Constant

Face the ever present problem, ongoing mistake

Way I choose to be, alone

Conscious decision, a way to dodge commitment

The space that I have chosen ‘til now, for now

I spend my days hiding in the dark

Afraid of outcomes not offered to me

Think of what is right, every minor detail over again, back and forth

And I will face this on my own

And I will face this all alone

And day by day I try to break away

From what I’ve come to know and how I’m set to think

This is the constant guiding me, the only constant I can see

And I will wait alone, that’s where I’ll be

I’ve got to face it on my own.
