I walked across the pond clutching at anything I could see 

Never looking back, hopeless in my ecstasy

The gold and glitter clouded by gaze

Oh how I wish I wasn't in a daze

I toppled bridges and dams, reaching for the impossible

Thinking about the present, knowing I'm unstoppable

My legacy to be written in gold!

But as I looked back I saw what my ignorance withhold

Pain and suffering plagued the pond of which I walked

My reward at other expense, oh what I have I sought

No strings to bind me, no friends to find me

The end of the road with no one to love me

But when I looked inside, I was empty

The weight of my actions, all to heavy

Things I chased, were all in vain

So I begged for forgiveness as I faded away
